合唱新視界──提升科大生美感素養與跨界能力的合唱劇場課程實踐

New Vision in Choral: Promoting the Aesthetic Literacy and Interdisciplinary Ability of the Technological University Students through Choral Theater Practicum

本研究旨在探討多元跨域之合唱新趨勢於大學合唱通識課程之創作展演應用、以及科技大學生美感素養與跨域能力的培育。文中溯尋舞動合唱及合唱劇場的起源與發展，此依據開發於大學合唱課程裡運用舞動合唱及合唱劇場的教學策略、習式設計，引領科技大學生透過音樂跨域整合之創作展演、並探索其創作展演歷程及學習成效。研究者教學策略及習式內容涉及選曲考量、動作設計要點，研習樂曲風格、曲式結構與織度，以不干擾演唱及影響音準音色的表現而設計隊形變化與肢體韻律動作，並以視覺及其他劇場元素豐富人聲的展現。為準備全方位的表演型態，學生必須較往常較靜態的合唱型態，付出更多的練習與省思、開發手眼協調及多元智慧、學習與他人協調合作，以及在反覆演練中，加深對合唱作品內涵的理解。期望本研究能提供合唱教育者在教學及研究上的參考。

The purposes of this study are to explore the new trend of choral performance, the application on the composition and performance implemented in the university general choral courses; and to cultivate the aesthetic literacy and interdisciplinary competence of technology university students. The origins and development of show choir and choral theater were studied. Based on choral methods, the researcher designed the teaching strategies and practice forms to develop the students’ the interdisciplinary competence through the integrating compositions and performances. Their creating process and learning effects were investigated as well. The selection of quality choral literature and the choralography were highly concerned by the researcher. The choralography, combining formations and movements, should be matched with the style and construction of choral music, and not to interfere with the accurate singing, to display the rich performance with visual and other theater elements aid. In order to prepare for a versatile performance styles, students spent much time and energy on practicing and reflecting to develop multiple intelligences and hand-eye coordination. They learned to cooperate with others, and enhanced their comprehension of choral works with repetitive practice. The study provided a reference for choral educators in teaching and research.
