In my dream,children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue and fields are green:
And laughter is the language of the world
Then i wake and all i see
Is a world full of people in need
Tell me why(why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something i have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos i don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand Tell me why?
Everyday i ask myself
What will i have to do to be a man?
Do i have to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who i am?
Is that what my life is for
To waste in a world full of war?
Tell me why(why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something i have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos i don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand Tell me why?
(children)tell me why?(declan)tell me why?
(children)tell me why?(declan)tell me why?
(together) just tell me why, why, why?
Tell me why(why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something i have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos i don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand Tell me why?
Tell me why (why,why,does the tiger run)
Tell me why(why why do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why (why,why do we never learn)
Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?
(why,why do we say we care)
Tell me why(why,why do we stand and stare)
Tell me why(why,why do the dolphins cry)
Can some one tell us why we let the ocean die?
(why,why if we're all the same)
Tell me why(why,why do we pass the blame)
Tell me why (why,why does it never end)
Can some one tell us why we cannot just be friends?
Why,why

What is Festive Drum?

The Festive Drums that we have today is a combination of deliberation and renascence of Chinese culture. In 1988, the world 1st 24 Festive Drum Troupe is formed. The idea came from Mr Tan Chai Puan and Mr Tan Hooi Song. The earlier is the alumni, while the later the music teacher, of Foon Yew High School (JB). Both of them were the committee members for the Chinese Cultural Festival at then. The ceremony took place in the centennial old Chinese Temple in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. 12 calligraphers from Singapore and Malaysia gave Jie Ling a new life through their brushes. The drums were all donated by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. 24 drummers from Foon Yew High School Symphony Band stomped the drums with pride. Cheers and tears filled the atmosphere with great sentiment. Finally a "voice" to represent the Chinese fled for a living from China hundred years ago is found.

“Festive Drum” is the proposed interpretation of "Jie Ling Gu" by the co-founder Mr Tan Chai Puan. There have been interpretations such as “Seasons Drum”, "Chinese Drum", "Season Command Drums" or “Chinese Percussion” etc used by many different troupes. The essence of the drums is to commemorate the wisdom of the ancient Chinese and the origin of Chinese festivals. Instead of translating it literally, the focus was set on "Festive" to emphasize the human activities and to cast a scent of vibrancy.

The concept of percussion started ~8000 years ago when people use sound to communicate before a common language is formed. The more abstract astronomy related words, the solar terms (i.e. Jie Ling) started ~2200 years ago during the early Qin. According to China's studies, there have been different dedicated sets of Chinese Drums used in the ancient days for each of the solar terms. Unfortunately, the practice has long disappeared through times.

Today, Festive Drum Troupe uses the easily available Lion Dance Drum to symbolize the availability of Chinese , scattered all over the region . C oupled with calligraphies of Jie Ling, wushu-dance like synchronized motion, self-composition of modern but traditional percussion pieces , Festive Drum Troupes g a ve Chinese percussion a new horizon. The Festive Drum is different from, but does not conflict with the Chinese Orchestra Percussion. Each of the Chinese Percussion has her own niche and charm. Instead, they mutually nourished the Chinese culture and art in the region. Since then there have been ~70 Festive Drum troupes in Malaysia, ~10 troupes in Singapore; troupes are also heard from Brazil, China, United States of America, Japan, Switzerland, Taiwan and Thailand.

Festive Drum is the drum for the people, and it is powered by the people; because of the people we become better from day to day. Without the synergy and alike in the culture of Malaysia and Singapore, the drums could not made any loud bang at then; not mentioning now and in the future.

什么是节令鼓？

节令鼓的概念来自于陈再藩及陈徽崇老师。 1988 年马来西亚第 9 届全国舞蹈节的开幕礼上， 两位陈老师设计了 9 面大鼓的表演，一发不可收拾， 不只让开幕礼变成了表演的一个项目， 连续表演了两天，更促使了节令鼓的诞生。 “节令鼓是一个过节的鼓”， 这是两位陈老师的情怀。 1988 年于逾百年历史的柔佛古庙前， 12 名新马著名书法家赋予节令新生命， 24 名宽柔中学军铜乐队队员，敲响了由中华公会捐赠的单面大鼓。 浑厚振奋的鼓声充斥着全场，有人欢呼， 有人热泪满眶， 仿佛百年来终于找到了自己的声音。

节令鼓的英译为“ Festive Drum ”。尽管节令鼓的翻译各自精彩， 由于它是一个过节的鼓，所以陈再藩老师便倡议以 “Festive Drum” 作为节令鼓的正式译名， 而不以音译为名。

“鼓” 的概念据说在 8 千年前便已经产生， 而比较细致的节令概念是在先秦时期才形成。 根据中国的追溯，当时还有一套特定的鼓以及鼓谱，用来向天下公告节令。 但是这门“活动”已经不存在了。 2004 年春节，沉寂近百年的北京鼓楼， 25 面鼓再度被敲响； 晚上 11 时 57 分， 鼓楼敲响《二十四节令鼓之冬》乐章，鼓声于零点结束。 这与新马各地的节令鼓是一个美丽的交叉点。 各有不同的起点， 各有各的精彩；一个是追溯远古的篇章， 一个是移民地的文艺复兴。

我们现在使用的节令鼓是最为普遍的狮鼓，用意就是要象征我们华人的普及。 结合了书法、 武术、 舞蹈、自创的既现代又传统的鼓乐， 华族打击乐有了新的篇章。 节令鼓和华乐打击组虽然不同，但是不但不冲突， 反而更形成双轨发展， 让华族文化更加繁荣。 目前马来西亚大约有 70 支节令鼓队，新加坡不下 10 队；同时也有听闻巴西、中国、 美国、 日本、 瑞士、 台湾以及泰国都有节令鼓队。

节令鼓是一个为新马华人文化而创的鼓队， 它的力量来自于人们。 有了大众的支持， 我们的成绩与日迈进。 要是没有新马文化上的相近， 节令鼓当时又怎么能敲响？ 更不用说现在， 还有将来。
