"Duan Ge Xing" is not short, and "Long Ge Xing" is not long. Why is this?

Singing style is one of the forms of poetry, which was gradually developed and evolved from Yuefu poetry. There are no strict restrictions on its form, and the style is varied. It can be in the form of five characters, seven characters, or even miscellaneous characters. It can also be freely used in terms of rhythm. Everyone knows that there is both "Long Ge Xing" and "Dan Ge Xing", but we also found that "Duan Ge Xing" is not shorter than "Long Ge Xing". This is because its length is not based on the number of words, nor is it a sentence. The style is not divided into long or short, but it is divided according to whether the singing sound is long or short.

First of all, let’s understand what the length of singing is. Song-style verses are all expressed in the form of singing. Now we may only hear the use of high and low to describe singing, and rarely use length to express singing. , so there will be some doubts. The length of the singing voice means whether the tail note of the poem needs to be long or short when singing this poem. The length of the singing voice is used to determine whether the singing voice is long or short.

Secondly, distinguish whether it is a long song or a short song according to the length characteristics of the song. If the song is long, the ending is melodious and winding, and the duration is long, then it is a long song. If the song is short, the ending is short and powerful, and the duration is short, then it is a short song. So you only need to listen to the state of the tone when singing a few lines to distinguish between long and short songs.

In the end, the length of the song is ultimately determined by emotion. In ancient times, whether it was poetry, painting or calligraphy, it would place certain emotions on the creator and express certain feelings. The same is true for the song style, which embodies emotions while creating. The more excited, high-pitched, and excited the emotion expressed, the longer the drawl is often used to express the passion in the heart; the more peaceful the emotion is, the calmer and calmer the heart is, the longer the drawl is. Tao Lai feeling. It's like the soldiers shouting "one, two, one" to advance. It's almost impossible to hear someone shouting in a long tone, and it's usually short and powerful. When performing lyrical songs, they are often delicate and long, with a longer drawl. The above are some of my opinions on why "Long Song Xing" is not long and "Duan Ge Xing" is not short.
