馬蘭吟唱隊

**馬蘭吟唱隊 (Malanyin Singing Team)**

This vibrant Taiwanese indigenous music collective hails from the Amis tribe’s Malan community in Taitung, dedicated to preserving and revitalizing their cultural heritage through song. Active since the early 1990s, the group blends traditional Amis vocal styles—like intricate polyphonic chants and ceremonial melodies—with subtle contemporary arrangements, creating a bridge between ancestral traditions and modern audiences. Their work often revolves around themes of nature, community, and life cycles, as heard in releases like *Pakelang 八歌浪* (named after a ritual farewell ceremony) and *生命之環 (Circle of Life)*. Collaborating with artists and cultural researchers, they’ve become ambassadors of Amis music, performing globally to share their rich sonic legacy. Tracks like *珍重再見 Farewell* and *橫跨黃色地球* reflect their ethos: honoring roots while fostering connection across generations and borders.
