本學期即興將嘗試器樂結合即時電音及合成器，作即興演出。學期末參與交大音研所和文化大學音樂劇場組共同製作的〔草山映竹湖〕演出。

A core-course in two semesters for all year one students. Those who are interested in writing research paper in music are also welcome. In the first semester, we'll be exploring about the what, why and how of music research, in the second the different sources and resources (literary, notational, audio-visual). We'll be doing a lot of thinking, reading, talking and writing in and out of the classroom. An important companion throughout our journey will be the computer and the Internet. Our aim is to train ourself to be a modern-day musician-scholar, who can make music and make sense of music cleverly and critically. Concrete "product" at the end of the semester will be a mini-conference and an anthology of selected written work.

本課程將透過師生共同參與方式，希冀達成以下目標：

1. 讓學生了解台灣音樂史所牽涉到的各類型史料，意識到生活週遭可能蘊涵的台灣音樂史料，探索收集史料及判讀史料的方法；
2. 藉此課程讓學生實際進行史料的收集，以補充過去此方面工作不足之處。並進一步理解台灣音樂史料、研究文獻的存在與運用現況。

本課程範圍雖然包括台灣音樂史所有時期，但由於日治與戰後時期的史料收集已累積較多的成果(包括文字與影音資料)，研讀與分析將以此二時期為主要深入探討的對象。

A writing seminar where individual projects are presented and discussed. Focus will be on theoretical and methodological issues in musicological research and writing. The aim is to help each other to be a more experienced and critical writer of academic paper. The end "product" for each participant will be a revised and improved paper (oral and written). A mini-conference and an anthology of selected paper are planned.

The objective of this course is to guide students to return, inasmuch as this is feasible, to the composer’s original conception of a musical work, and to re-enact how music sounded at the time of its initial presentation.

本課程在指導學生瞭解數位音樂製作流程與軟硬體技術、電子音樂流派與相關技巧、以及如何利用現有的音樂科技、多軌混音軟體、聲音編輯軟體，來增加音效設計、數位編曲、電子音樂創作之效率與品質。學完此課程後，學生將有能力規劃自己的多媒體配樂專用之小型音樂工作站、並有獨立完成數位多媒體音樂的製作能力。

本課程將以實際應用為主，分別探討錄音理論，比較錄音硬體軟體，錄音室參觀實習、音樂會實況錄音演練及唱片製作概論。

本課程主要使學生瞭解基礎聲學理論，運用互動式電腦軟體學習整合電腦音樂與電腦化演方式來進行音樂聲學之瞭解，以科技的方法來瞭解聲音與音樂，並透過學習使用MIDI序列編輯程序，以及數位聲波編輯與變換程序，使用數位聲波編輯，音效處理，數位具象音樂，多軌軟體創作電腦音樂，聲波取樣，以及其他聲軌材料之整合，以強化聲學上之體認。

主要對像為具備絃樂器或鋼琴專業演奏能力之學生，也歡迎其他具有音樂專業背景之學生。本課程主要透過討論、嬝炕B報告及聆聽等方式，主要針對古典絃樂組合或絃樂與鋼琴組合之室內樂作品，進行研究與討論，期望達到以研究輔助演奏之目標。

The content of this course includes: English poetry and English art songs practice, interpretation, and performance, piano accompaniment discussion and interpretation. The song literature will be focused on Art songs by British and American composers, e.g. Roger Quilter、R. Vaughan Williams、Gerald Finzi、Benjamin Britten、Samuel Barber、Aaron Copland、Dominick Argento、Ned Rorem. The goal is to improve the students』 performing abilities on English art songs in both singing and piano accompaniment.
