墨子：「兼相愛交相利」

樂曲的初衷深受墨子「非攻」啟發。無論是古代還是當代，人與人之間的互愛互利都是社會穩定的基石，而人與人之間的互怨互損將激發矛盾、引發禍亂。鼓是一種「侵略性的樂器」。其鼓聲總有一種讓人警惕、精神抖擻、振奮人心的感覺。鼓是一種打擊樂器，也是一種「通訊工具」，在非洲的某些部落用以「傳達信息」。鼓在中國古代軍隊中，也用以「發號施令」。此外，鼓還可用於祭祀、樂舞、打擊敵人，以及驅除猛獸。

在《和平鼓頌》作品中，「鼓」將以墨子「兼愛」的精神，「非攻」的概念作為基礎，與樂團找到一種和平共處關係，這就從鼓的ppp開始......。

樂曲中，指揮將以「鼓」帶領觀眾使用掌聲和人聲與樂團，讓兩者融為一個 「歌頌和平」的音樂世界，為2018年的世界和平獻上一份祝福與期望。

Mozi: Loving and Benefitting Each Other

The piece was originally inspired by Mozi’s “Be Against Assault” Theory. Regardless of time, mutual love and benefit between people are the cornerstones of social stability. Conversely, mutual resentment and harm will create conflicts and disasters. The drum is a type of “aggressive instrument”. The sounds produced create a sense of vigilance, energy and excitement. Besides being a percussion instrument, the drum is also a “communication tool” that used to “convey messages” by some tribes in Africa, and ancient Chinese troops to “give orders”. Rituals, dances, attack of enemies and culling of beasts are some other possible uses of drums.

In it, “drums” are used to reflect Mozi’s spirit of mutual love, with “Be Against Assault” as the basic concept, before seeking to establish a harmonious relationship with the orchestra. This occurs when the drums are played at the softest level possible.

While performing the piece, the conductor will be using “drums” to lead the audience to use their applause and vocals, alongside the orchestra, to bring them together as a world of music that sings praises of peace, and offer blessings and great expectations for 2018.
