4. Shui-Neng Xie, the Art Master of Nose Flute Lalingdan & Mouth Flute Pakulalu circulated at the Southern Paiwan.
The Paiwan ethnic group is the second largest ethnic group with a population of approximately 105,620 (April 2023), spread among the southern area of the Central Mountain Range of Taiwan.
The Paiwan double-pipe nosed flute Lalingdan is derived from the so-called hundred-step-snake kamavanan, which is said to be the guardian god of the Piyuma tribe. According to the legend, kamavanan symbolizes a rich harvest and prosperity. In the performance practice of Piyuma village, the double-pipe nose flute consists of two bamboo tubes, one is a tube without finger holes and the other with finger holes. The nose flutes with carvings are musical instruments used by nobles, and those without carvings are musical instruments used by civilians.
The single-pipe flute of the Paiwan tribe is called Pakulalu. In Paiwan traditional culture, it was a tool often carried by warriors. It was used as a signal for clashes between tribes, foreign invasions, or the successful head-hunting of the enemy. Due to social changes, the tribes have reconciled with each other, so in modern times the mouth flute has become the favorite instrument of tribes in their leisure time.
In 2010, the Pingtung County Government announced Gilegilau Pavalius (Shui-Neng Xie) as the Cultural Bearer of the traditional art of Pingtung County“Paiwan mouth-flute and nose-flute”and in March 2011, he was invited to be the artist in residence for the 3rd Aboriginal Artists Residency Program of the Indigenous Peoples Committee of the Executive Yuan. In September 2011,“Paiwan mouth-flute Lalingdan and nose-flute Pakulalu”was inscribed as the“National and Important ICH item”and Gilegilau Pavalius as the Art Master.
謝水能團隊演奏排灣族口鼻笛
排灣族是臺灣第二大原住民族,根據2023年4月的數據,人口約為105,620人,主要分布在中央山脈南部地區。
排灣族的雙管鼻笛 Lalingdan 源自該族的百步蛇 kamavanan 傳說,據說它是排灣族的守護神。根據傳說,kamavanan 象徵豐收和繁榮。在排灣族 Piyuma 部落的演奏中,雙管鼻笛由兩根竹管組成,其中一根沒有指孔,另一根則有指孔。有華麗雕刻的鼻笛是貴族使用的樂器,而沒有雕刻的則是平民使用的樂器。
排灣族的單管口笛稱為 Pakulalu。在排灣族的傳統文化中,它是戰士經常攜帶的工具,通常用於部落之間的衝突、外來入侵或是成功獵首後的信號。隨著社會的變遷,部落之間已經和解,因此在現代,口笛成為部落人們閒暇時間最喜愛的樂器。
2010 年,屏東縣政府公告謝水能(Gilegilau Pavalius)為屏東縣「排灣族口笛與鼻笛」傳統藝術的文化傳承人,並在 2011 年 3 月被邀請擔任行政院原住民族委員會第三屆原住民族藝術家駐村計劃的駐村藝術家。同年 9 月,「排灣族口笛Lalingdan 與鼻笛 Pakulalu」被列為「國家及重要無形文化資產」,謝水能被授予藝術大師的稱號。

6. Kacalisian Double-Pipe Mouth and Nose Flute Heritage Music Troupe
The double-pipe mouth and nose flute musical culture of the Paiwan people, an Indigenous group in Taiwan, is one of the most representative traditional musical cultures in Taiwan. In addition to reflecting contemporary Paiwan life, culture, and musical characteristics, it also showcases the beauty of Taiwan's important indigenous humanistic art. This traditional Indigenous art, deeply characteristic of Taiwan's culture, was designated in 2011 by the Council for Cultural Affairs (now the Ministry of Culture) as a national“Important Traditional Art”and intangible cultural asset. Following this designation, Paiwan master artist and national living treasure, Mr. Pairing Pavavalung (許坤仲), initiated a“Heritage Transmission Project,”which uses an apprenticeship system to teach the knowledge and skills of crafting and playing the traditional mouth and nose flute. This project aims to preserve and expand the transmission and revitalization of the double-pipe mouth and nose flute tradition among the Paiwan people as an essential element of Taiwan's intangible cultural heritage.
In 2018, Mr. Pairing Pavavalung's first two apprentices, Etan Pavavalung and Sakuliu Pavavalung, along with the second cohort apprentice Yu Wei-Min in 2023, successfully completed their training and passed their certification assessments. The Ministry of Culture's Bureau of Cultural Heritage officially certified their graduation, allowing these apprentices to continue preserving this important intangible cultural asset. To further the transmission of knowledge, these apprentices have become the next generation of master artists, promoting the tradition independently and creating opportunities for dialogue with multiculturalism, performing arts, and other intangible cultural assets. Through this work, the essence of the Paiwan double-pipe mouth and nose flute traditional music is revitalized, promoted, and shared more widely.
The“Kacalisian Double-Pipe Mouth and Nose Flute Heritage Music Troupe”is a newly formed music group focused on the traditional Paiwan double-pipe mouth and nose flute as its primary musical foundation. In today's fast-paced, heavy-metal, and technology-driven society, the group seeks to share the ancient, pure, and ecological melodies of this music, conveying the stories, humanistic values, and artistic language embedded within the music.
The term“Kacalisian”comes from the Paiwan language and is a term that the Paiwan people of southern Taiwan use to refer to themselves, meaning“the people who truly live on sloping land.”Before modern civilization and electronic entertainment entered the villages, the traditional double-pipe mouth and nose flute served as a medium of emotional communication between people and as a way of remembering life's experiences. It played an important role in tribal society and in the continuation of their original cultural and artistic heritage.
Kacalisian 雙管口、鼻笛薪傳樂音團
台灣原住民排灣族的雙管口、鼻笛樂音文化,係台灣傳統音樂中很具代表性之樂器文化之一,除了反映當代排灣族生活、文化形態、音樂特色外,也呈現台灣重要的原始人文藝術之美。此一深具台灣文化特色之原住民傳統藝術,於2011 年經文建會(今為文化部)指定為國家「重要傳統藝術」無形文化資產,並於被指定的人間國寶、排灣雙管口、鼻笛傳統藝師許坤仲( pairing
pavavalung)先生開始「薪傳計劃」,以師徒制形式推展傳統口、鼻笛的製作與吹奏知識與技能,以傳習台灣重要的無形文化資產,擴大原住民排灣族雙管口、鼻笛技藝傳習與活化。
2018 年,藝師許坤仲首屆 2 位薪傳藝生伊誕・巴瓦瓦隆與撒古流・瑪拿妮凱,及 2023 年第 2 屆薪傳藝生余衛民等三位藉由結業考核通過,文化部文資局正式授証結業,以延續此重要無形文化資產的技藝。而為了延展傳習,讓薪傳藝生成為傳藝師的接班人,有機會自主推廣,開創與多文化、表演藝術、傳統樂音等無形文化資產對遇機會,讓台灣原住民排灣族雙管口、鼻笛的傳統音樂精髓,得以活化、宣揚與擴大分享的層面。
「Kacalisian 雙管口、鼻笛薪傳樂音團」是一個新組成的音樂團體,以台灣原住民排灣族傳統的雙管口、鼻笛為主要音樂構成,試圖在現今快速的、重金屬的、科技的社會情境裡,分享古老原始的、純淨的、生態的音樂旋律,傳遞音樂中的故事、人文與藝術語彙。
Kacalisian一詞為排灣語,乃世居在南台灣的排灣族人自稱的用語,意為「真正住在斜坡土地上的子民」。在現代文明科技、電器娛樂進入部落以前,傳統的雙管口、鼻笛是 Kacalisian 傳達人與人之間的情感,以及追憶人生的心靈媒界,扮演部落社會製度及傳續原始文化藝術的重要地位。
7. Chu-Yin Culture and Arts Troupe, the transmitting group of the Amis Polyphonic Singing circulated at Falangaw village, Taitung
The Amis ethnic group is the largest ethnic group with a population of approximately 218,570 (April 2023), scattered through the southeastern coast of Taiwan.
Among all the Amis music and dance, the polyphonic songs circulated in the Falangaw village of Taitung city are the most well-known around the world. Due to population expansion, immigration of the Han people and the expansion of the city, the Falangaw Amis as well as their polyphonic singing spread to the neighboring villages. Therefore, in the so-called“pan-Falangaw area,”people share the same stream of culture and music.
In this unique type of polyphonic singing, usually two or more people form the ensemble group. One is the lead singer and the rest follow. The lead singer starts the singing with the main melody and improvised lyrics, and then the followers join at certain point with one or more highly embellished counter-melodies, called“ikung”(bending) by the Falangaw Amis, to correspond with the leading singers while the musical emotions are simultaneously enhanced. Both main and counter-melodies are based on the same skeletal melody but performed in various ways, thus forming a‘free-counterpoint-like’ polyphonic texture (from the western viewpoint) and an extremely ornamental singing style. In 2021, Falangaw Amis polyphonic songs was inscribed as a“National and Important ICH item”and its transmitting group is Chu-Yin Culture and Arts Troupe.
阿美族杵音文化藝術團,台東馬蘭部落阿美族複音歌謠的傳承團體
阿美族是台灣人口最多的原住民族,根據 2023年 4月的數據,人口約為 218,570人 , 主要分布 在台灣東南部沿海地區。
在阿美族的音樂與舞蹈中,台東市馬蘭部落流傳的複音歌謠最為世界所熟知。
由於人口擴展、漢人移民以及城市擴展,馬蘭阿美族及其複音歌謠也隨之傳播至鄰近村莊。因此,一般所謂的大馬蘭地區內,族人共享著相同的文化和音樂。這種獨特的複音歌謠通常由兩人或多人所組成。一位為領唱者,其餘為跟隨者。領唱者首先以主旋律和即興歌詞開始演唱,隨後跟隨者在某個點加入一部或多部具高度裝飾性的對位旋律,馬蘭阿美族稱之為“ikung”(彎曲),以呼應領唱者的旋律,同時增強音樂的情感。主旋律與對位旋律基於同一個骨架旋律
來演唱,但以不同方式呈現,從西方音樂觀點來看,形成一種近似於「自由對位式」的複音結構,並展現出極具裝飾性的演唱風格。
2021 年,馬蘭阿美族複音歌謠被列為「國家及重要無形文化資產」,其傳承團體為杵音文化藝術團。

9. Tulbus Mangququ,a Bunun singer, national music prize winner, Indigenous cultural worker, and a community builder for his tribe, Kunuan, in Hualien, Taiwan.
I am Tulbus Mangququ, a member of the Bunun tribe. Tulbus is the name passed down through the ages. It's the name of a tree, the beech tree, which is closely tied to the Bunun way of life, serving as building material, firewood, and tools.
In the tribe, when I want to introduce myself more sincerely, I say, "Ma nak ngaan a tupaun tu Tulbus Mangququ taingka sia Isnangkuan" (My name is Tulbus. Mangququ is my family name, and Isnangkuan is my mother's family name).
From this, people can usually tell whose child you are, who your elders are, and which tribe you come from. This is important because you must know who you are. If you don't know yet, don't worry, take your time to find out. Just like when the Bunun sing, you will eventually find your place in the harmony, or like walking into the mountains, where you'll always find a spot that feels right. Most of the time, I'm a singer and music creator, a young man from the Mayuan tribe in Hualien. Throughout more than a decade of“returning home”action and also singing, I have gained much gratitude and learning. This journey will never stop, and I will continue to walk it humbly.
馬詠恩,布農族歌手、國家級音樂獎得主、原住民文化工作者以及臺灣花蓮馬遠部落的社區建設者
我是詠恩,布農族。Tulbus 是千百年來承襲下來真正的名字,它是一種樹的名字,叫「櫸木」,而這種樹,跟布農族的生活息息相關,包括建材、木柴、工具等等。
在部落在族裡,通常要更誠意介紹自己的時候,我會說“Ma nak ngaan a tupaun tu Tulbus Mangququ taingka sia Isnangkuan”(我的名字叫做 Tulbus,Mangququ是我的家族名,Isnangkuan 是我媽媽的家族名)。
從這裡大概就可以知道,你是哪一家的孩子、你的長輩是誰、來自哪一個部落,這很重要,因為你必須知道你是誰。如果你還不知道你是誰,不要急,慢慢找回來就好,就像布農族在唱歌的時候,總會找到你適合的聲音位置,就像走進山裡的時候,山總會給你安心舒適的定位。而我更多的時候,是一個歌手和音樂創作,來自花蓮馬遠部落的青年。返家行動十幾年當中,有著非常多的感恩和學習,這條路不會停歇,會繼續謙卑的走。

11. Seediq Traditional Culture Troupe
The ritual dance song uyas kmeki is a precious cultural heritage of Seediq people, one of Taiwanese indigenous ethnic groups. The essence of its unique polyphonic singing lies on the improvisational singing and dance of the lead singer. In the past years, the knowledge and skill of leading singers have been handed down from generation to generation in the indigenous society. However, nowadays, this tradition has almost vanished. The only case is Obin Nawi—one of the few present-day alive elders who know well about uyas kmeki --leads the younger generation of the Strengan village to continue singing, which echoes the heritage of Gaya ancestral teaching. The“Seediq Traditional Culture Troupe”is composed of Strengan villagers. They continue to sing and dance the ancient songs left by their ancestors, which have been disappearing in the rapid pace, and shed a light on the conservation of this Seediq cultural heritage.
This troupe has been announced and inscribed as a uyas kmeki transmitting group by
the government of Nantou County in 2013. Several leading singers in this troupe possess the qualities of“superb singer and weaver,”that means, they master not only the art of singing but also the weaving skills. They are acclaimed as the“most beautiful woman”in the traditional aesthetic standards of the Seediq.
賽德克傳統文化藝術團
祭典舞蹈歌 uyas kmeki 是賽德克族珍貴的音樂文化資產,其獨特的複音歌唱精髓繫於領唱者的即興領唱與領舞。在過往歲月中,領唱技藝在部落間代代相傳,然而現今碩果僅存的,只有耆老 Obin Nawi 帶領著南山溪部落的年輕世代持續傳唱,呼應 Gaya 祖訓的傳承精神。「賽德克族文化藝術團」即是由南山溪部落的族人所組成,他們在傳統文化一片急速凋零聲中,繼續唱著祖先所留下的古謠,代表賽德克族歌舞傳習未來的希望,並於 2013 年獲南投縣政府公告登錄為uyas kmeki 的技藝保存團體。該團中的幾位領唱者都具有「能歌善織」的特質,不但歌藝好,織布技藝更是精湛,亦即賽德克傳統審美標準中「最美麗的女子」,可說是賽德克傳統美學的極佳代表。
