● 台灣出品的風尚爵士‧融古爍今的世界之聲
「絲竹空」由一群充滿好奇心、極具開創性格的爵士樂和國樂界專業音樂家所組成，自 2005 年成立以來，不僅持續舉辦【乘著紙鳶的翅膀】、【遊文戲字】、【手牽手的力量】等年度公演，亦受邀參與如【兩廳院夏日爵士音樂節】、【台中爵士音樂節】、【華山藝術生活節】、【2012劇場藝術節】、【爵士上海國際音樂節】、印尼【雅加達國際爵士音樂節】、馬來西亞【檳城爵士音樂節】、韓國【加平國際爵士音樂節】、立陶宛【維爾紐斯爵士音樂節】、以及【加拿大音樂週音樂節】等國內外音樂盛會，至今公演超過 200場，精湛的技巧及充滿張力的演出，每每獲得熱烈的迴響。
● Jazz from Taiwan! The fusion of
sounds old and new!
In 2005, a group of innovative young musicians, some trained in jazz and
some in traditional Chinese music, came together to become – Sizhukong!
From Taiwan’s top concert venues to Korea to Shanghai and all the way to
Lithuania, Sizhukong has dazzled audiences worldwide with its unique
combination of musicianship and daring.
在作品發行部份，2007 年首張同名專輯【絲竹空】被本地樂壇視為有著劃時代的意義，不僅完成了華人樂手夢寐以求的目標 – 將國樂與爵士樂元素完美融合、入圍了 2008 年第十九屆金曲獎演奏類「最佳專輯」與「最佳專輯製作人」兩項提名外，亦獲新聞局遴選為 2010 年代表台灣參加法國 MIDEM 坎城國際唱片展的大碟之一。For their self-titled debut album, widely recognized in Taiwan as a watershed moment in contemporary Taiwanese music, the band received nominations for Best Album and Best Producer at the 2008 Golden Melody Awards, and the album was selected as Taiwan’s representative to the 2010 MIDEM Festival in Cannes.
2009 年的第二張專輯【紙鳶】更是當年的大驚奇，在沒有主唱、明星與宣傳的缺乏行銷資源狀況下，於 2010 年第二十一屆金曲獎一舉拿下兩年前失之交臂的演奏類「最佳專輯」與「最佳專輯製作人」兩項殊榮，並於世界多國上巿，傑出的表現不但使爵士權威網站 All
About Jazz 以專文推薦，音樂總監彭郁雯也在其後勇奪第一屆金音獎「最佳樂手獎」。With their second album, Paper Eagle, Sizhukong shocked everyone by winning Best Album and Best Producer at the 2010 Golden Melody Awards, an unthinkable feat for an album with no lead singer and no promotion machine behind it. Paper Eagle was released worldwide and promoted as a favored selection on the All About Jazz website.
2012 年的第三張專輯【旋轉】由索尼音樂於全球發行，不但榮獲中國第四屆金榕樹音樂獎「最佳爵士唱片」， 且獲得爵士權威網站 All
About Jazz 樂評專文報導，報導在兩週內榮登點閱率亞軍，並入圍第三屆金音獎「最佳爵士專輯獎」、「最佳爵士單曲獎」，核心成員吳政君亦入圍「最佳樂手獎」，同名演出製作獲得金音獎「最佳現場演奏獎」。 Sizhukong's latest album, Spin, released worldwide in 2012 by Sony Music. This record was nominated for Best Jazz Album and Best Jazz Singles at the 2012 Golden Indie Music Award in Taiwan. Spin was also promoted as a favored selection on the All About Jazz website.
● 寓絲竹之聲像，於空廣之融合
「絲竹空」本為中醫穴位，位於眉毛尾端，常用於治療顏面神經異常、頭痛、目眩等等狀況。從「絲」與「竹」到「絲竹空」，是段乍看之下無關、內蓄卻無際的連結，是二胡三弦與笛簫笙板的樸質精湛、是來自指尖安定心體的寬宏精妙、是穿梭形而上界的舒坦被覆，你可以想像成某個高山幽谷的奇俠、在輕點間就令人茅塞頓開的驚喜；也可以解讀為某種無法辨讀的語言、在聽聆中就可使人想像畫面的神奇。
現在，「絲竹空」成了某個樂團、或說某個音樂計劃的名稱。以此命名，是取「絲竹」之音樂意象及「空」之包容廣大，並期許作品能夠帶來療癒愉悅之感。「絲竹空」不僅是結晶於眉稍耳際的自然之聲，也是象徵著無邊融合的音樂世界。
● Imagine the sound of silk and bamboo –
soaring in open sky!
“Sizhukong” means “Silk, Bamboo, Open” and originally refers to a pressure
point near the temples. A few light touches will relieve headaches,
dizziness, and all sorts of aches. To get from the silk and bamboo of our
musical instruments to the openness of our music, imagine a lone knight who
swoops to the rescue from high in the mountain passes. Imagine listening
to an impenetrable language that calls up visions before your eyes.
Sizhukong is a band, or a vision. We
chose this name to bring together as one the material of our instruments and
the vast, all-encompassing power of the empty. May our music touch you
and bring you healing!
● 穿貫東西流派的融合爵士風尚‧
凝聚生活打造的療癒音樂世界
凝聚生活打造的療癒音樂世界
「絲竹空」的演出，就宛如段段發芽於爵士土壤的尋根之旅，你可以說是新品種的爵士樂，因為那超越制式格律的即興、曲目行進間的對談呼應，竟是由中國傳統的絲竹樂組合而成；要視為新品種的國樂也不為過，因為每個印象中古樸規矩的段落都融入了跨界元素與律動成份，囊括了傳統與新潮、既典雅又隨興，會讓人忍不住自由搖擺。
就這樣，在喚醒懷舊記憶的當兒，也詮釋著當下的生活點滴，東方與西方、音樂與靜謐、傳統與現代，都已像銀河系星群那樣錯落有致地和諧共生著。
無論視之為創造新樂種風格、催生台灣世界音樂也好，說其為革新東方爵士樂、打造出跨界發燒天碟也罷，抑或只是為了讓國樂也能令人手舞足蹈的簡單訴求，他們曲曲的分分秒秒，都是前所未聞的嶄新樂章。
● East and West meets Jazz!
Sizhukong performance is
like a return to the heartland of jazz, but a new kind of jazz, where Chinese
instruments of silk and bamboo bring unbridled rhythms of improvisation and
subtle echoes between the tunes. Or it is like a new kind of traditional
Chinese music, where the solemn sounds of old are infused with new
elements. Whichever it is, you can’t help but follow along with it.
It calls up old memories, but
holds instruction for modern life as well. East and west, music and
silence, tradition and innovation – everything is in harmonious array, like the
stars of the Milky Way.
You can say it is a new style
propelling a new world music in Taiwan. Or a reborn eastern jazz, a
genre-crossing best-selling behemoth. Or a simple plea for a revivified
Chinese music. But every second of every tune will be new to you.
This is what “Sizhukong” is. Not just music, but a mantra, a paradise, a
utopia. Or so we say – but come and hear for yourself.
