十年前在台灣的音樂出版或許只是發展過程中一個階段,但是對於麥書而言,卻是一段漫長的過程。回想過去十年裡,我們無時無刻不在思考,做為一個音樂出版公司,到底應該在業界扮演何種的角色?
慢慢我們瞭解到,音樂出版應該不只是出書、賣書,應該包含了推廣正確的音樂理念與責任。所以在音樂出版品新舊交替的過程時期,我們成立了「麥書國際文化事業有限公司」。
麥書將過去所累積的經驗重新做調整,這些包括我們花了大量經費在軟硬體的設備費用,以及在今年初剛架設完成的音樂製作部,讓我們成為國內少數可以獨立製作(編曲、錄音、混音)的音樂出版公司。
我們啟用新的觀念、技術及方法來打破巢臼,時時接受新的觀念,嘗試用新的方法,不斷的求新求變,提昇音樂的機能。
展望千禧年未來,我們對麥書仍然有些許期許:
一.加速提昇國內音樂出版品與資訊。
二.朝向全方位的音樂出版方向邁進。
三.舉辦各式音樂交流活動,刺激國內音樂學習環境的人口。
四.記錄音樂大環境的變動,提供業界參考檢索的資訊。
最後要感謝過去對「麥書」提攜的同業先進,「音樂精靈」時代的朋友們, 麥書的成長歷史有著與你們密不可分關係,謝謝你們!
