北管音樂家

莊進才(1935生),北管音樂家。出生於宜蘭冬山鄉。父親莊木土是新樂陞職業北管劇團(冬瓜山班)團員。莊進才的北管人生在父親的影響下,從小在冬瓜山班當起二手鼓,在宜蘭英劇團打銅鑼鈔、頭手鼓。其成長過程中從頭手鼓到文場的吹奏樂器,如鴨母笛、嗩吶、三弦、吊鬼仔等各種樂器吹拉彈打的訓練,也都積累了深厚的底韻;加上對歌仔戲武場樂曲的熟練,學過國樂;這些技巧都讓他在戲曲界博得「八隻交椅坐透透」的美名,並於1988年成立漢陽北管劇團,2009年被宜蘭縣政府登錄為宜蘭縣無形文化資產,亦獲文化部第一屆、第二屆重要傳統藝術保存團體之榮銜。莊進才曾多年擔任國立臺北藝術大學北管樂師,藝術成就及對後輩的提攜,有目共睹,2016年獲頒第十九屆國家文藝獎。
