Alles Gute zum Geburtstag Richard Strauss!
Born on this day in 1864, Strauss wrote several operas and tone poems that Leonard Bernstein conducted at landmark moments in his life.
On the afternoon of Bernstein's debut with the New York Philharmonic in 1943, he conducted Strauss's "Don Quixote", and in 1968, he conducted "Der Rosenkavalier" during his first performances with the Wiener Staatsoper. Bernstein also devoted an entire Young People's Concert to Strauss's "Also Sprach Zarathustra".
To celebrate, we share with you an excerpt from Salome, "The Dance of the Seven Veils", on a Deutsche Grammophon recording by Leonard Bernstein and the Orchestre National de France.

鄧雨賢逝世73週年紀念。
這位創作出〈四季紅〉、〈月夜愁〉、〈望春風〉、〈雨夜花〉等多首膾炙人口歌謠的音樂才子,於1906年7月21日生於桃園龍潭。師範學校畢業後,鄧雨賢到台北日新公學校任教,3年後辭職,前往日本東京的音樂學院深造。
1933年,鄧雨賢受陳君玉之邀,進入古倫美亞唱片會社,和李臨秋、周添旺等人合作,譜出一連串經典曲目,除了前面提到,有「四月望雨」之稱的代表作品外,純純、愛愛共同演唱的〈南國花譜〉和江蕙曾翻唱的〈一個紅蛋〉也出自他的筆下。
只可惜,因二次世界大戰局勢緊迫,創作環境不復已往的緣故,鄧雨賢離開台北,遷居回祖籍──新竹芎林。卻在居住於芎林期間,不幸受到肺病和心臟病影響,最終在1944年6月11日逝世,年僅39歲。
今日,在龍潭大池旁有他的銅像,在芎林則有紀念公園,得以讓我們緬懷這位才華洋溢,卻英年早逝的台灣歌謠創作者。

鄧雨賢(客家語:Then Yí-hièn;臺語:Tēng Ú-hiân;1906年7月21日-1944年6月11Translate this page
6月11日,是一生創作無數臺灣歌曲,被譽為臺灣歌謠之父的作曲家鄧雨賢紀念日(1906年7月21日 ~ 1944年6月11日)。
鄧雨賢出身桃園龍潭,1921年進入每間教室幾乎都有鋼琴的臺北師範學校就讀,在著名音樂家一條慎三郎啟蒙下,開啟了音樂之路。鄧雨賢師範畢業後於日新公學校教書,卻持續自修音樂,之後毅然辭職前往東京音樂學院進修。鄧雨賢返國後,正值臺灣開始吹起臺語流行歌曲浪潮,他以《大稻埕進行曲》初試啼聲受到矚目,獲聘為古倫美亞唱片公司專職作曲。之後一首又一首膾炙人口的好歌不斷問世,「四、月、望、雨」四季紅、月夜愁、望春風、雨夜花一時眾人傳唱,堪稱當時最受歡迎流行歌曲作家。日治後期在軍國主義狂潮下,鄧雨賢部分作品遭改為戰爭意味濃厚的歌曲,他於是辭去了古倫美亞的工作回到教職,在音樂教育上做出貢獻。1944年,二戰逐漸邁入尾聲,鄧雨賢因心肺疾病於6月11日逝世,年僅37歲。鄧雨賢萬萬想不到的是,這些傳世名作,竟然在之後遭中華民國政權列為禁歌禁止傳唱。
鄧雨賢的曲風以西方樂理融合臺灣民謠風味,詮釋了何謂臺灣風格流行音樂,不但獲得市場上的成功,更成為無數⋯⋯
