魏樂富(Rolf-Peter Wille)
鋼琴家,1954年生於德國,1978年畢業於漢諾威音樂院,隨即抵台定居。紐約Manhattan School of Music鋼琴演奏博士。1990年國家文藝獎,2010年金曲獎最佳古典專輯及最佳演奏獎得主。目前為國立台北藝術大學教授。
近年來,他以敏銳的音樂感受寫成幽默的文章,在國內主要報章雜誌上發表,廣受喜愛。魏樂富博覽群籍,所涉獵的藝術領域極為廣泛。魏樂富於三十年前剛到台 灣時,讀了馬偕的 From far Formosa ,之後陸續深入閱讀許多有關台灣的書籍,特別受到影響的有 Davidson和 Kerr之著作。2009年初,偶然讀到《魯賓遜漂流記續集》中有關福爾摩沙的記載,再加上進入小琉球烏鬼洞的經歷,深受震撼,彷彿之前只存在於書中的所 有想像,突然和現實聯結在一起。
其著述翻譯成中文的有《冷笑的鋼琴》、《怎樣暗算鋼琴家》、《台北沙拉》、《鋼琴家醒來作夢》、《魏樂富葉綠娜雙鋼琴二十五週年》,以及由Philips品牌,Universal 唱片出版之多套獨奏專輯與『雙鋼琴演奏專輯』,均備受好評。

鋼琴家魏樂富 找出台灣新鮮事
德國鋼琴家魏樂富30年前娶雞隨雞,跟著老婆大人、鋼琴家葉綠娜來到台灣,初來寶島,他對一切感到陌生,從小喜歡閱讀文學、樂於舞文弄墨的他,開始大舉閱讀有關福爾摩沙的英文著作,日前他將長年的讀書心得,以小說的筆觸,完成《福爾摩沙的虛構與真實》一書,論起書名由來,因為外國人對筆下的台灣有太多的幻想。
魏樂富翻開書中一張繪製於1675年的畫作,不禁覺得好笑,畫中的福爾摩沙建築有著圓頂的風格,人民穿的衣服,也帶有歐洲風味,完全是一幅想像圖。不過,過去交通、資訊不發達,搞不好當時有許多歐洲人看到這幅圖而信以為真。
書中〈現代傳說〉的篇章,內含有趣的資訊。魏樂富指出,2010年發行的好萊塢電影《被出賣的台灣》,拍攝地點事實上在泰國。然而1965年一群好萊塢影星,包括史蒂夫.麥昆、坎蒂絲.柏根在台灣拍攝《聖堡羅砲艇》其實說的是中國的故事,主要敘述1926年在中國揚子江巡邏的美國砲艇「聖保羅」號船上水手的故事。
魏樂富指出,柏根在她的回憶錄裡Knock Wood 特別描述了她時拍片的台灣,留下讓人不敢恭維的描述,「這城市是以壯觀的故宮博物院,還有它富異國風情的妓院而聞名。市政水管維修工作也尚未引進,因此人們得小心翼翼踏過,在汙水裡燉熬。」

Knock on wood 按字面的意思就是“敲敲木头”, 这个短语是指接触木制的东西可以确保好运、甩掉坏运气。这是一个典型的英语惯用语。 ...----

Myth, mysticism, and revolution collide in this film by Glauber Rocha, a pioneer of Brazil’s socially committed Cinema Novo movement. Suffused with antiauthoritarian fervor and the intensity of life in the desert, this landmark work of radical cinema is a scorched-earth allegory about mindless ……

Seeing "God and the Devil in the Land of the Sun" finally convinced me that Flannery O'Connor could, in theory, be adapted for the screen.
