本篇論文旨在透過指揮者的角度研究美國當代作曲家丹·佛瑞斯特 (Dan Forrest, 1978-) 於2013年初完成的大型合唱—管弦樂作品《給在世者的安魂曲》(Requiem for the Living)。丹·佛瑞斯特目前為在國際上逐漸打開知名度的中生代作曲家；作為一位全職作曲家，佛瑞斯特至今已有為數可觀受歡迎的各式音樂作品問世；身為一個基督徒，宗教性作品更是佔了他眾多的創作當中的絕大多數，而《給在世者的安魂曲》便是其中最傑出且受歡迎的代表性作品之一。對此，本文將針對《給在世者的安魂曲》一曲其相關的創作背景、樂章與歌詞安排、樂曲架構，以及樂曲的指揮詮釋等內容進行分析探討。期望透過本文的研究，可將這首藝術性及欣賞價值兼具的傑出當代基督教合唱作品有系統地介紹給廣大合唱音樂與基督教聖樂的愛好者。

This paper aims to examine the large-scale choral-orchestral work Requiem for the Living, completed in early 2013 by contemporary American composer Dan Forrest (1978-), through the lens of a conductor. Dan Forrest is a mid-generation composer who is gradually establishing his reputation internationally. As a full-time composer, Forrest has released a considerable number of diverse music works to date, which have been well received. As a Christian, religious pieces make up the vast majority of his numerous creations, among which Requiem for the Living is one of the most outstanding and popular representative works. This study will focus on analyzing the creative background, arrangement of movements and lyrics, musical structure, and the conducting interpretation related to Requiem for the Living. It is hoped that through this research, this remarkable contemporary Christian choral work, which holds both artistic and appreciative value, can be systematically introduced to a broad base of enthusiasts of choral music and Christian sacred music.
