专辑介绍
为台湾这片瑰土谱写一张专辑是Cicada创作首脑江致洁酝酿多年的梦想，此张《边境消逝》正是她走遍台湾西部沿海，取其诗意，拾景为曲的土地概念专辑。
开场曲〈沿着风与沙〉以风吹沙似粗砺质地的大提琴破题，辅以中提琴、小提琴幽缓声线，颇得信步沙洲之意境。〈当羣鸟掠过天边〉以清澈透明的钢琴琴音，拨云见日，海天一色，弦乐群勾勒羣鸟齐飞翱翔的姿态，振翼的意象，煞是动人。在以绵密弦乐群描绘云林成龙湿地柔软质地的〈在海与土地之间〉，还有用冷静笔触观照沿海景致的〈那些逝者弯曲的倒影〉之后，〈当丛花毅然绽放〉改采绝望哀伤的情绪，层层交迭出云林麦寮的现状，随着演奏力度不断增长，一股渴望绝处逢生的韧性，终于绽放希望枝枒。终曲〈汇流向海〉虽为内心忧郁的D小调，却以强烈的节奏流转营造鼓舞人心的生命热力。特别收录的〈浮游在海上的岛屿／潜沈于水下的人们〉为三年前的EP同名歌曲，这是Cicada以土地议题为创作发想的初衷，也是《边境消逝》的起点，在新加入中提琴编制后重录此曲，既是回顾，更是创作者念兹在兹的自觉。
综观台湾古典乐、室内乐、独立音乐圈，这张《边境消逝》的创作与演奏，既细腻、深沉且大器、完整，确实是张难得的概念专辑，值得所有热爱台湾这片土地的耳朵聆听再三。
Jesy Chiang has always dreamt of dedicating an album to Taiwan's graceful landscapes, composer and leading member of Cicada. To this end, she visited many coastal wetland areas in western Taiwan, immersing herself in its poetic landscape. These visits became the inspiration behind the group's new release “Coastland”. The opening track “Flying Sands” begins with a coarse and grainy bass line, later joined by violas and violins. The upbeat “Flapping Wings” features the crystalline notes of a piano and the high soaring sounds of string instruments mimicking a flock of birds flying through scattered clouds. The continuous and tender sound of the string instruments in “Close to the Wetland” brings to life the softness of Cheng Long Wetland Park in Yunlin County. In “Withered Reflection”, Taiwan's western coast is musically depicted with a gentle touch, while the next song “Blooms in Dark” is suffused with despair and sadness, creating an image of Mailiao, Yunlin County, allowing listeners to capture a moment of hope as the song proceeds. Despite the melancholy composition in D minor, the last song “Into the Ocean” crescendos with an uplifting energy with its strong, pulsing rhythm. The bonus track “Over the Sea/Under the Water” was the first song of Cicada released three years ago as part of their first EP. Inspired by Taiwanese environmental issues, it was the starting point for “Coastland”. After the new violist joined the band, this track was re-arranged and re-recorded for the new album, as a reminder as to where it all started.
The concept behind the music and the performance in “Coastland” are exquisite, profound, and grand──fans of classical music, chamber music and independent music will all relate. A truly extraordinary conceptual album that will be on repeat by those of who devote their love to Taiwan.
