《電離》(Ionisation)在西方打擊樂的發展歷史中，佔有非常重要的地位與價值；特別是以打擊樂合奏的擊樂創作來論述的話，《電離》幾乎可說是西方音樂歷史中，第一首打擊樂合奏的正式音樂會擊樂創作作品。而催生出這首經典之作的作曲家─瓦雷斯(Edgar Varèse)，同樣也在西方音樂歷史中，具有不可磨滅的重要性與影響；他不僅涉獵於未來主義(Futurism)的思維，於此同時，也致力於電子音樂的推廣。而在這些新穎與實驗性極強的想法中，瓦雷斯憑藉著自身對於科學的喜好與瞭解，而對於音色、聲響與節奏的認知與要求，進而創造出令人耳目一新的聲響世界。

本論文將以瓦雷斯的《電離》作為探究的起點，深入地從作品本身的歷史定
位、樂曲分析、創新之處與後續影響等各種觀察角度，來解析《電離》與擊樂創作的相互連結；最後則是藉由《電離》的樂器配置與舞台設置，展現打擊樂發展數十年後，所呈現的創作實踐作品《燃燒的叢林》。冀望呈現出近百年來擊樂創作發展的根源樣貌，並從《電離》這首作品內容的價值與意義，探究此作品對於後續的擊樂創作，影響的音樂呈現、素材運用與創作意涵等各層面的脈絡。

"Ionisation" occupies a significant position and value in the development history of Western percussion; especially in terms of the percussion creation of percussion ensemble, "Ionisation" can almost be said to be the first piece in the history of Western music. A formal concert percussion composition for percussion ensemble. Moreover, the composer who gave birth to this classic, Edgar Varèse, is also of indelible importance and influence in Western music's history; he not only dabbles in the thinking of Futurism but here at the same time, it is also committed to the promotion of electronic music. In these novels and highly experimental ideas, Varese relies on his preference and understanding of science, and his cognition and requirements for timbre, sound, and rhythm create a refreshing sound world.

This dissertation will take Varese's "Ionisation" as the starting point for exploration and analyze the interaction between "Ionisation" and percussion creation from various perspectives such as the work itself is historical positioning, music analysis, innovation, and subsequent influences and connection. Finally, through the instrument configuration and stage setting of "Ionisation," the composed practice work "The Jungle, burning" will be presented after decades of percussion music development. The willing of dissertation hopes to present the original appearance of the development of percussion creation in the past 100 years, and from the value and significance of the content of the work "Ionisation", explore the impact of this work on the subsequent percussion creation, the musical presentation, the use of materials, and the meaning of creation.
