樂曲介紹 簡約音樂（minimal music，有譯極簡音樂）源自1960年代，最先用於形容一批英美作曲家如尼文、格拉斯、 賴克、拉尼、約翰・亞當斯等概念性的，以多個短小段落不斷重覆，卻在隱約間帶出微妙變化的音樂作品，《元 宇宙幻想曲》正是以這種風格寫成的實驗作品。樂曲開首部份合唱團分成三組以不同組合反覆演唱四個指定樂 句，並隨機插入第五樂句，機遇（aleatoric）手法讓作品每次演出均有不同效果。隨後鋼琴加入，各聲部反覆 吟唱獨特的音程組合，相同樂句在聲部間輪流更替，加上四位隨機加入的獨唱，音樂始終在持續重覆卻暗地裡在 變化。零散細碎的 語歌詞表面上描述新世代元宇宙的各式想像與意象，然而在反覆出現與層層堆疊之下， 語 獨有語韻卻製造出奇幻有趣的聲響效果。 《元宇宙幻想曲》由中大合唱團委約創作並作世界首演。此曲可供任何合唱組合（混聲、同聲）演唱，並有英語 版本（CUCCS0028）。 黃旨穎（作曲、作詞） 黃旨穎畢業於香港演藝學院音樂學院，主修作曲，師隨羅永暉、麥偉鑄及曾葉發；2010年在紐約大學完成藝術 碩士課程，主修音樂劇寫作。黃氏的音樂劇作品先後在美國多個州份公開演出，亦是少數獲美國BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshop取錄的亞洲作曲學員。回港後多次與演戲家族合作，並憑《美麗的1天》獲 得第二十三屆香港舞台劇獎最佳原創曲詞，及後《仲夏夜之夢》也獲得第二十六屆香港舞台劇獎年度優秀製作。 黃氏現擔任香港演藝學院兼職講師，教授音樂劇創作，並與不同藝團合作。 Facebook專頁: cynthiawongmusic Programme Note The term 'minimal music' is often used to describe a generation of Anglo-American composers in the 1960s, such as Michael Nyman, Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Terry Riley and John Adams, whose compositions often involve repetition of short musical phrases with subtle changes. Cynthia Wong's Metaverse Fantasy is an experiment on such composition style. The piece starts with each vocal part singing four musical phrases in a designated loop. A fifth phrase is inserted randomly among the loops, adding an aleatoric element to the piece.

The piano entry marks a new section, with the vocal parts singing intervallic loops, and exchanging musical phrases with the other parts. Four freely-inserted musical 'modules' for soloists recount fragments from the loops with subtle changes. Fragmented Cantonese lyrics suggest imageries of the metaverse in the cyber age, the unique sonic quality of the language forms an interesting sound world upon repetitions and juxtapositions of the lyrics.

Metaverse Fantasy is commissioned and premièred by the Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus. This piece can be sung by choruses of mixed or equal voices. A version with English lyrics (CUCCS0028) is also available.

Cynthia Wong (composer, lyricist) Cynthia Chi-Wing Wong obtained her Master of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre Writing at New York University and Bachelor of Music (Composition) at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts.

The first full-length musical she wrote after her return to Hong Kong, A Beautiful Day, won the Best Original Score for the 23rd Hong Kong Drama Awards. Her another full-length Cantonese musical A Midsummer Night’s Dream was awarded as one of the Best Production of the year in 2016. Cynthia is currently a part-time teacher at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, teaching musical theatre writing, and participates in various musical productions.
