以吉他手的角度論流行音樂創作與編曲以孫聖明的創作專輯《不想忘》為例

Abstract

本報告重點在了解吉他在彈奏方面的限制與特色，並探討如何將其特色應用在創作與編曲上。內容方向分為創作部分與編曲部分，創作部分包括使用吉他作為創作樂器的方式探討，以及在創作初期，使用吉他或不使用吉他作為創作的補助工具，對於作品風格呈現的影響；編曲部分則深入探討如何創造吉他多元化之音色，以及各種吉他音色對於編曲的增益。在了解吉他的限制與特色之後發現，在創作方面若將和弦進行與節奏模式在吉他上面作模組化的套用，並且在彈奏時將旋律融入和弦當中有助於創作。並且使用吉他作為創作工具之作品風格往往延續了創作時原始的想法，亦可在編曲時，利用不同的樂器編制來作潤色；編曲方面若能發揮吉他的特色，利用空弦以及高把位開放和弦，結合不同的吉它類型、不同的吉他音源軟體以及吉他效果器，創造多元化的吉他音色，所有的限制都將成爲吉他這樣樂器的優勢。最後將這些想法應用於研究者的創作專輯當中，並分享其中的創作方式與吉他編曲錄音的想法。希望更多愛樂者願意接觸吉他這項樂器，並且期使更多音樂能從吉他這項樂器創作出來。This report focuses on understanding the limitations and characteristics of guitar playing, and discusses how to apply its characteristics to composition and music arrangement. The content direction is divided into composition and music arrangement. In terms of composition, includes the discussion of the use of guitar as a supplementary instrument for composition, and the impact of using guitar or not as a supplementary tool for composition in the early stage of composition on the style of the work; In terms of music arrangement, discusses how to create diversified timbres of the guitar, and the help of various guitar timbres for music arrangement.After understanding the limitations and characteristics of the guitar, I found that in terms of composition, if the chord progression and rhythm pattern are applied to the guitar in a modular manner, and the melody is integrated into the chords when playing, it will help the composition. And the style of works using the guitar as a composition tool often continues the original idea when composing, it is also possible to use different musical instruments to make modifications when arranging music. In terms of music arrangement, if you can make full use of the characteristics of the guitar, use open strings and high-position open chords, combine different guitar types, different guitar sound source software, and guitar effects to create a variety of guitar timbres, all limitations will become the advantages of this instrument.Finally, apply these ideas to the researcher's creative album, and share the composition method and guitar arrangement recording ideas. I hope that more musicians are willing to touch instruments like the guitar, and that more music can be created by the guitar.
