Music for Two Pianos by Taiwanese Composers Mao-Shuen Chen, Gordon Shi-Wen Chin, Pey-Wen Yen, Ching-Wen Chao
No full textThis is the first study to focus exclusively on two-piano compositions by Taiwanese composers. The four compositions for two pianos included in this study are Ballade (2003) by Mao-Shuen Chen
(b. 1936), Quiet Joy (1999) by Gordon Shi-Wen Chin (b. 1957), Piano Duet (2005) by Pey-Wen Yen (b. 1966) and Studies No.1-3 (1999) by Ching-Wen Chao (b. 1973). The two male and two female composers have been and continue to be prominent figures in the development of contemporary music in Taiwan. The objective of this study is to familiarize performers and audiences with the four compositions for two pianos.
Each composition represents a significant personal statement by the composer, exemplified by a unique compositional style. Mao-Shuen Chen’s Ballade and Gordon Shi-Wen Chin’s Quiet Joy are inspired by the society and the landscape scenery in Taiwan, which convey their deep personal affection for the island. The Piano Duet by Pey-Wen Yen reflects a time when she was in search of mental freedom, a state that is related to Nirvana in the religion Buddhism. Studies No.1-3 by Ching-Wen Chao was written during a time when she was preoccupied with the works of the American composer Conlon Nancarrow. The third piece of Studies is the first of a series of compositions in memory of Chao’s father. The selection and synthesis of musical materials - pitch, rhythm, harmony, texture, formal structure - create a satisfying, self-assured expression of emotions by the composers and a fulfilling musical experience for the audience.
This study provides an in-depth analysis and performance suggestions for the four compositions for two pianos. Diverse approaches to the use of Western techniques to express personal values derived from Asian culture is an important concept shared by the four compositions. These works represent a successful model and an inspiration for Taiwanese composers that desire to combine Eastern and Western compositional techniques.Item withdrawn by Mark Zulauf ([email protected]) on 2009-11-11T15:02:24Z

[[alternative]]A STUDY ON ELEMENTARY EDUCATION IN CHING TAIWAN (1684-1895)
No full text[[abstract]]The main purposes of the study are:
1. To understand the origin of the institutions of the elementary education in Ching Taiwan.
2. To inquire the development and changes of the institutions of elementary education in Ching Taiwan.
3. To discuss the contributions of the elementary education to the transmission of Taiwanese culture and education.
Historical method was undertaken. First-hand and second-hand ones sources were used, such as official documents, private materials, and publications.
The main findings of this study are as follows:
1. Community schools (She-sheh), charity schools (I-sheh), and private schools were the three major patterns of the institutions of the elementary education in Ching Taiwan
2. She-sheh emerged from the Yuan dynasty, I-sheh from the Song dynasty, and private school from the Han dynasty. She-sheh and I-sheh were established and sponsored by the public, but private schools did not so.
3. In Ching Taiwan, the total numbers of She-sheh were about 273, I-sheh about 83, and private schools about 1127. She-sheh played the major role before Emperor Chang-Long, but private schools took its place after Emperor Chia-Ching. As to I-sheh had much less influence than the others.
4.Compared to the formal schools, county schools and academies, private schools played a significant role in the educational development in Ching Taiwan, which importance should not be ignored any more.
Predicting hospitalization for heat-related illness at the census-tract level: Accuracy of a generic heat vulnerability index in phoenix, Arizona (USA)
No full textabstract: Background: Vulnerability mapping based on vulnerability indices is a pragmatic approach for highlighting the areas in a city where people are at the greatest risk of harm from heat, but the manner in which vulnerability is conceptualized influences the results.
Objectives: We tested a generic national heat-vulnerability index, based on a 10-variable indicator framework, using data on heat-related hospitalizations in Phoenix, Arizona. We also identified potential local risk factors not included in the generic indicators.
Methods: To evaluate the accuracy of the generic index in a city-specific context, we used factor scores, derived from a factor analysis using census tract–level characteristics, as independent variables, and heat hospitalizations (with census tracts categorized as zero-, moderate-, or highincidence) as dependent variables in a multinomial logistic regression model. We also compared the geographical differences between a vulnerability map derived from the generic index and one derived from actual heat-related hospitalizations at the census-tract scale.
Results: We found that the national-indicator framework correctly classified just over half (54%) of census tracts in Phoenix. Compared with all census tracts, high-vulnerability tracts that were misclassified by the index as zero-vulnerability tracts had higher average income and higher proportions of residents with a duration of residency < 5 years.
Conclusion: The generic indicators of vulnerability are useful, but they are sensitive to scale, measurement, and context. Decision makers need to consider the characteristics of their cities to determine how closely vulnerability maps based on generic indicators reflect actual risk of harm.Corresponding Author:
