岁末墓地走一趟





       洋年初一头一天,先祝各位朋友新年进步,身体健康,万事如意!

       新年前夕和诗人林子参加了由前新广电视导播郭浩水先生导览的健走团到咖啡山坟场走了一趟 …....... 想起了40多年前单独前往的那次,感慨良多之余也想起这首清明诗和这篇旧文 …....... 1.1.2023


佳节清明桃李笑,野田荒冢只生愁。

雷惊天地龙蛇蛰,雨足郊原草木柔。

人乞祭余骄妾妇,士甘焚死不公侯!

贤愚千载知谁是?满目蓬篙共一丘!


       诗人以清明时节雨纷纷中的野田荒冢为背景色调,娓娓道出了人间的正气和愚昧。其中“人乞祭余骄妾妇,士甘焚死不公侯!”的强烈对照最为形象化。试想:一个人也不是穷到三餐不继,还有房子妻妾,竟然会不时厚着脸皮在墓地里向陌生人乞讨别人祭拜祖先的食物!更令人难以想象的,回家之后还向妻子和小老婆得意洋洋的炫耀食物的精致美味?!这些妻妾如果还有一点人格品格,委身与如此不堪的人,又会怎么想?将心一横将计就计成为“同道中人”(如英文所说:if you can't beat them join them?!)?或许如此余生还能有点“幸福”?反之,可能一辈子都会很不快乐吧?!

       这令人不禁联想起此地一些只知道贪小便宜而无视是非正义的恶俗嘴脸!悲哀的往往是,政客们就是利用这些人的愚蠢无知来成就他们的“事业”。其实很多时候,只要有利可图,人还是倾向“现实”的(在此地叫做“务实”?),久而久之这也成为了一种约定俗成“无可厚非”的风气,于是人人渐渐变得唯利是图,罔顾道义,而最终竟也皆大欢喜?!只是:一个国家的价值观若沦落至此,执政者为了其政治利益也“乐观其成”,有必要时还不惜公然以“威胁”“恐吓”的方式来“鼓励”(?!),人民也甘之若饴,这个国家还有希望和前景吗?有时真的很怀疑,这是否是一种有意识和有意图的“国民教育”?!

       唉!从前的人说:贤愚千载知谁是?满目蓬篙共一丘!此时此景仿佛却是:贤愚奸诈满目是?!虎狼狈貉共一丘?!

       回想 6-70年代人心相对的淳朴日子,看看今天的国风民情以及“宫闱恩怨”,又蓦然想起杜甫的低沉句子:冥冥重泉哭不闻,潇潇暮雨人归去!

照片3:墓地一景,虽然天色有点黯淡,但总归是庭园静好,岁月不惊?!

曾广纬书法展




       昨天和老友夏帏以及诗人林子参观了新加坡著名书法家曾广纬先生在醉花林的书法展,一看之下不免又要发发牢骚,为何像广纬先生这等本地少有德高望重创作等身底蕴深厚的书法家至今还未能获颁国家文化奖?是有关方面有眼无珠,还是艺术圈里的“政治”问题?!无论如何,广纬先生除了是许多行家都非常推崇敬重的书法家,也是个与世无争,典型的谦谦君子。广纬先生早年喜欢华乐也弹奏古筝,曾在 River Valley Road 里峇峇里路以书法驰名狮城的端蒙中学执教,其间育人无数。

疫情心路之一



前言/杂感

      2022转眼就要成为去年了,经历了两年多的疫情,也经历了许多事 …........ 人及古稀,一时千言万语也不知该从何说起!

       前些时候有位热心网友请看电影,过后吃饭聊天,谈到周遭世情不免一同感叹。该网友显然是位宅心仁厚的人,提起过往职场种种不平最终总是以息事宁人的态度对待。这点个人却不能完全苟同,个人以为,积极争取公平对待有时也不完全只是为了个人,有时也会泽及他人后人?举个陈年例子,多年前刚从澳洲留学回来,本地还没有正式作曲委约这回事。接到一个官方音乐团体的“邀请”要为他们出国表演写一首曲。开始一切沟通无碍皆大欢喜,但来到费用问题,对方却毫无这方面的专业观念而显得一脸错愕,他们也许以为:邀请你是给你面子和机会?(一样是学有专长大专出身,为何他们不会邀请医生律师为他们免费提供专业服务?)还说:连你的老师都不收费为何你竟然要求付费 ............... !最终,在个人的坚持下还是取得一点象征式的费用。后来,也许有关方面觉得理亏以及不专业?从那时开始,所有的同类委约都会有个合理的报酬。后遗症是:据理以争原非坏事?但这种事做多了自己也不免成为了“不受欢迎人物”?

       说这些并非要强调自己的“伟大”,但当今世道,许多机构部门做事都讲究先例条例,凡事公事公办 law by law 铁面无情多一事不如少一事,很少有明事明理勇于承担的主管愿意惹麻烦以致最终好心没好报?!问题是:作为一个有点说话资格的人,如果事事都逆来顺受选择做个好好先生,除了委屈了自己,或许也会“拖累”后来者,再说,如果人人都是“乡愿”型,尤其那些有点“江湖地位”的所谓前辈遇事都三缄其口明哲保身,不愿也不敢得罪人,长远来说这国家社会以及文化还有希望吗?

圣诞前夕的礼品




       昨晚睡得迟,今天下楼吃早餐时发现餐桌上多了两件东西。太太告诉我当我还在元龙高卧时,有人送来了两样应节德国糕点!送的人是住在附近的一对近年来自德国的中壮年夫妇,他们昨晚已经来过一次,但因为我们外出看音乐会没人应门,今天一早又来了,真不好意思!

       其实也只是点头之交,最初是他们在家附近遛狗时看到我仿佛有点“面善”?就试探:你是不是那个作曲家?那回我只是披头散发短裤T 恤,不知如何居然也被认出来!后来偶尔碰到也就点点头打个招呼。

       印象中,一般外国人或来自中港台的人士,对文化人艺术家似乎都会比较尊重?在澳洲念书时也是如此,当人家知道你从事音乐艺术工作时,都会对你“另眼相看”。

       其实此地的人对艺术家往往也是“另眼相看”,记得当年刚从国外回来,偶尔有人问起你是干哪行的,回答说作曲,人家就以为见到鬼,因为他们所知道的作曲家如贝多芬莫扎特等等都已经死了几百年了!

       如今“时代进步”,生活质量也相对比以往富足,但来到精神层面,比起对流行歌星或有钱有势的人,一般人对从事文艺工作者或学校老师会有同等的“尊重”或羡慕吗?按今天的种种风气价值,我们真可能会成为一个有文化深度的国度?!

无论如何,谨祝各位朋友圣诞快乐,新年进步!

Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring

       从少年时期至今,几乎听了一辈子的一首巴哈作品 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6OgZCCoXWc,原本是一首大合唱,后来渐渐有了各种不同编制版本。最初听的是个钢琴独奏版本,由钢琴家Myra Hess改编 Philip Entremont演奏。

       此曲百听不厌,不管你是否是教徒,听不听得懂歌词,也无论当下心情好坏,听了都能让人感觉安宁舒泰,暂时忘却许多世间烦恼 …....... 有时也搞不清楚究竟是宗教令音乐伟大还是音乐能使信仰更为坚笃?网上看到的这首“据说”是最佳版本?倒是觉得很配合空气中越来越浓的圣诞氛围。

潘式炒饭





       今日天寒地冻不想出外打包晚餐,便自己动手来个炒饭。炒饭是网上学的,网上有各门各派的炒饭示范视频,基本做法相似但细节各异,我也不依样葫芦,就根据现有材料天马行空。

       准备好蒜头洋葱鸡蛋冷饭等材料,用橄榄油把蒜头爆香再依次加入洋葱片和鸡蛋,再倒入白饭一起翻炒,之间添加适量酱青绍酒和胡椒粉,最后再洒上些画龙点睛似的肉干碎片,霎时间香味四溢 …..... 连楼上韬光养晦的岳母大人都闻香而至, 哈哈哈哈 …......

遇见光碟发布会 05/12/2022 蔡承志

昨晚,承蒙好友潘兄盛情邀约,出席了潘耀田与林子双CD发布会。取出CD册子当下,握在手里,厚厚实实,内容丰富详实,映入眼帘的封面,是静谧人稀青青树林,一点落寞,翠绿木黄,让人心生遐想与怀念年少时的嬉闹,摄影师张夏帏,不经意中凸显了对昔日时光的无限缅怀。
发布会的流程,细节设计充满巧思,细致感性,是一场文化内涵丰富的相聚。盛典上,除了该有的出版人,主宾致辞,赠送CD,致鸣谢词外,也加入了CD部分的歌乐欣赏。另外,当晚节目安排中,在每一首歌乐播放前,先安排一遍诗词朗诵,让出席听众先有清晰的了解歌词,也多了一个机会欣赏到无乐的语言美。
孙宽女声朗诵,朗读歌词充满诗意,抒情优美,其音色极其纯净,很能将听众带入诗境,从而得到很美的诗意享受。
男声郑光辉的朗读尤其引人,让人心悸颤动,在他朗诵“悼念消失的华校”下,其节奏控制、语调顿挫抑扬皆精彩!犹以留白静默,更是扣人,直到末句“言岂由衷”,一下抓住整场气氛,无奈与扼腕,倾注了瞬间的寒颤与心酸。这里“词文与朗诵人”偶然碰撞,静与动的反差,精彩纷呈,感人至深。藉此,向朗读者郑光辉致以敬意,他将无声的文字,化着有声的吟咏,较之歌曲,体现了不同表演艺术形式深刻的感染力。后来一位自国外来的观众,在交流时间里,述说表达听了这一阙词后,眼泪都快滴下,想必这位观众应多少已了解到本地华校从辉煌走向没落的潮起潮落,也感受到那无情历史的碾压与折腾,难得能在会场中抒发了自己的共鸣。记得多年前,也曾阅读到这首词,同样地也被末句震慑,伏案沉思,一时无语,却心潮起伏,冲动之下,还发了信息给词人林子,表达了读词后,赞叹她的文字力量。
众所周知,潘君长期坚持对文化教育,民风变迁的关注、针砭、关怀、思索, 书写博文,这里他用古体词牌《沁园春》”悼念消失的华校“谱写合唱曲,曲中多处回旋、反复,此起彼伏,似有着莫名的情感牵挂,内在深思探索,不断呼唤感召,让歌曲如螺旋般地展开,历史的翻云覆雨与失落的莫然,在不短的时空长河里,曾激起绵绵翻滚却霎那即逝的浪花,命途悲壮!奈何!
另一个教人感到眼睛一亮的节目是:“那一片青草地”,无论从词意,或曲风,都是轻快,爽朗的儿谣,可贵在男声朗读中,展现了另一风貌,他将愉快跳跃的诗乐情,朗读成富古拙与怀念意象,许是极为出奇不意的二度创作,朗诵者的特立视角,巧妙地抹画出如同潘君常在博文中显出的文人气,怀旧,念旧,感怀昔日淳朴民风,通过朗诵精彩地展现了词意中丰富的可塑性。
另外非得加上一笔的是,张平辉的合唱钢琴伴奏,在张君手上奏来,音乐格局非常严谨,且在他的推波助澜下,无论是力度变化,和声铺陈,速度掌控,俨然地将演唱牢牢地扣在方寸间,从而更托出整体音乐的深度与厚度,听之听之,在下无意中一直被他的琴音揪住,不能自拔。
