This paper explores the modernization of the musical activities of Falangaw people, an Amis tribe in Taitung, during the 1880s to the early 1990s. This has been done by examining performance events, vinyl records, patriotic education, Han religion, films, etc. The research attempted to trace the early performance records of the Falangaw people and how their dance performances served politics during the Japanese colonial period. It also studied how they settled the issue on "tradition" in performance, on the basis of the ethnomusicologists' fieldworks and the significant performances from the 1970s to the 1990s. The singing education as political indoctrination during the colonial period affected the Falangaw people's musical taste, while the "Mountain" cultural work of the 1950s, another form of political indoctrination by the Han, conclusively influenced the development of the current aboriginal song and dance forms. As for the vinyl records of aboriginal folk songs springing up in the 1960s, the research mainly probed into the participants' musical experiences and their interpersonal relationships and studied the genres of the songs recorded. The paper also sketches the case of Falangaw Amis of how Han religion and films influenced the aborigines' musical life.
