"Who is that qin? The Water Ghost of Song Dynasty is a theme concert in the Song Dynasty, which composed a dialogue through the Millennium with the sound of the piano.
Guqin, also known as lyre, Qin Yu and lyre, is a traditional plucked instrument in China, with a history of more than 3,000 years, belonging to the silk in the eight tones. Guqin has a wide range, deep timbre and lingering sound.
Guqin is the oldest traditional musical instrument in China. Since ancient times, among the four arts of "Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting", the Qin refers to Guqin. Guqin has a long history, from The Book of Songs, Shangshu and Historical Records to Tang poetry and Song poetry, literary masterpieces and ancient paintings. There are related records on the theme of guqin.
Chinese guqin culture has a long history. According to the traditional culture of China, there are five stars in the sky, five elements on the ground and five tones on earth. According to legend, Emperor Yan discovered music at the foot of Yangtou Mountain in Jingfeng, Qinyuan, and Shennong "cut tung into a piano and the strings into silk", creating the original piano.
The piano face consists of seven thick and thin strings from outside to inside. In ancient times, strings were made of silk, but now they are mostly made of steel. The sound of guqin is very unique, and you can feel the quietness and remoteness of guqin when listening to music.
"Silence" can be said to be the biggest feature of the piano sound, and it is also called "the voice of the ancient times" and "the voice of heaven and earth". "Quiet" here has two meanings. One is that the violin needs a quiet environment, and the other is that the violin needs a quiet state of mind.
There are more than 3,360 guqin songs, more than 30 piano scores/kloc-0 and more than 300 piano songs. On October 7th, 2003165438+/kloc-0, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee announced that Chinese guqin was selected as a world cultural heritage. In 2006, it was listed in the list of China's intangible cultural heritage.
Guqin is also called Qin Yu, because some ancient literati used the piano decorated with jade, hence the name, and later became the laudatory name of Guqin.
Besides Qin Yu, Guqin has many nicknames and posthumous title in the long historical development, such as lyre, lyre, Fan Tong, Gudong, Yu Zhen, Ming Si, Qin Ming, Qingyin, Shunqin, Yuxian and Sanchitong. This is posthumous title of the ancient literati.
