The Chinese gongs and drums music characteristics of this

a subject that involves a lot of aspects, this paper is mainly for the band pattern and functional characteristics and performance methods of two aspects, combined with my teaching and playing practice, talk about their own shallow

experience, for everyone to discuss.

First, on the classification of musical instruments

Our ancestors as early as the Zhou Dynasty era (about 11th century BC - 771 BC) on the founding of the classification of musical instruments, that is: gold, stone, soil, leather, silk, wood, Lagenaria, bamboo, eight categories,

Commonly known as the "eight sound", "the", "the", "the", "the", "the", "the", "the", "the" and "the".

The classification of musical instruments was initiated by the ancient Chinese musicians, namely: gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen, bamboo eight categories,

commonly known as the "eight tones", and the evolution of musical instruments has evolved over the long period of history, but the classification of the "eight tones" is still used. Ancient Chinese musicians did not specifically

percussion instruments and then categorized, so percussion instruments are scattered in the eight tones.

(a) The Law of Musical Instruments for the National Orchestra (Central Conservatory of Music, People's Music Publishing House, March 1964) divides percussion instruments into five categories: drums, gongs, cymbals, plates, and stars.

(2) "Introduction to Ethnic Music" (Central Academy of Arts, Music Research, July 1963 People's Music Publishing House) will be divided into five categories of percussion instruments; drums, gongs, cymbals

class, plate bang class, other categories.

(C) "Chinese ethnic musical instruments" (Jane Qihua "ethnic folk music" 1985, 4) will be divided into six categories of percussion instruments; drums, gongs, cymbals, bells, bamboo boards and wood

bang class, iron plate and stone class.

(d) Chinese Musical Instruments (Liu Dongsheng, Hu Chuanfan, Hu Yanjiu, December 1987 Light Industry Press) will be divided into three categories of percussion instruments; leather membrane, metal,

bamboo, wood, jade and stone.

(e) Chinese Musical Instruments (edited by Zhao, 1991 Modern Publishing House), percussion instruments are divided into two categories; body sound instruments, membrane sound instruments.

(6) Chinese Musical Instruments Illustrated (China Academy of Arts Research Institute of Music, edited by Shandong Education Publishing House, July 1992), percussion instruments are divided into four major categories; leather and membrane class, bamboo and wood

jade, comprehensive class.

(7) The Illustrated Catalogue of Chinese Percussion Instruments (edited by Li Minxiong, the first draft of February 1996, to be published), divides percussion instruments into five categories; drums, bells, gongs, cymbals, and

other categories

It can be seen from the above classifications that there is no uniform definition of the categorization of Chinese percussion instruments by the Chinese music community in the modern age, and that each of them considers the categorization from different perspectives. They are categorized from different perspectives, one is according to

The traditional Chinese folk customary categorization. The many classifications themselves show that any one of them is not perfect. For the many varieties of Chinese percussion instruments, how to carry out a systematic,

standardized and scientific classification is still to be further summarized and improved in practice.

Second, the band

The Chinese gongs and drums can be divided into two categories: gongs and drums and silk and bamboo gongs and drums. In terms of the combination of instruments and the form of performance, no matter whether it is a gong band or a silk and bamboo gong band

Chinese gongs and drums can be divided into two categories. ...... >>

Question 4: The origin and development of percussion 30 points Chinese percussion instruments

The first time that a percussion instrument is used in China, it is the first time that a percussion instrument is used in the world. -- A Brief History of the Drum

The drum is one of the oldest musical instruments. It is the earliest type of instrument to mature compared to wind, plucked and stringed instruments. In the musical activities of primitive tribes, the drum occupies an important position. When was the drum created? Most of the contact from the cultural relics, literature is the Xia, Shang, Zhou three generations of drum instruments. But the creation of the drum, undoubtedly earlier than that. In the "book of rites? Mingtang bit" in the "earth drums, Kui rafters, reed blowers, the music of the Yiqi clan also" records, revealing that the ancestors in the music and dance activities have been used in the pottery drums. In Lüshi Chunqiu (The Spring and Autumn Annals of Lu Shi) Ancient Music" says that Yao's music official, "used the colorful leather to fake a percussion and drummed it". Fou in the life of primitive people for food pottery, covered with animal skin, it became a drum. Zhouli? Chun Guan? Chapter": "Palm the earth drum Bin Duo." Zheng Xuan note: "Du Zichun Yun, earth drums, tile for the frame, leather for the two sides, can be struck." This is an early record of the use of leather drums. It can be seen that our ancestors mastered the production and use of drums very early.

The Chinese alligator drum was found at the Xia culture site in Xiangfen, Shanxi, which is the same as the one found in the "Classic of Poetry" (诗经?). The drums were found in the Xia culture site in Xiangfen, Shanxi Province. Lingtai" recorded on the "alligator drum Feng Feng" and "Lu Shi Chun Qiu" Zhuan Xu "make fresh first for the music advocate. Fresh was laid to rest, with its tail drumming its belly, its sound Ying Ying" material verification, all indicate that the use of leather drums have a long history. In the Shang dynasty oracle bone inscriptions, drums written " ", which is similar to today as a bronze surviving Shang and Zhou drum shape. In the Zhou Dynasty, drums were more developed. According to Mr. Yang Yinliu's statistics, there are more than 30 kinds of drums recorded in the Zhou Dynasty.

Drums, as the "longest of all sounds", were used in the rituals of gods and societies, as well as in campaigns and battles. In the ritual ceremonies, the drum to the sound of thunder to symbolize the spring thunder, to stimulate the growth of all things; in the military campaign, the drum is used to invigorate the generals and soldiers of the strong gas, shocking the four sides. Because of this, Xu Shen in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China's first philological work "Shuowen Jiezi", the "music" explained as a drum instrument pictograms, it is from a side reflecting the importance of the drums in the ancient music activities of the status of musical instruments.

In ancient China, musical instruments were divided into eight categories according to the sound material, that is, the so-called "eight tones": gold, stone, silk, bamboo, Lagenaria, soil, leather, wood. Among them, leather is a drum instrument, such as foot drums, drums, drums, drums, drums, drums, drums and so on. Ancient drums, in addition to the earliest pottery drums more, mostly hollow round wood covered with animal skin made of wooden drums.

During the North and South Dynasties, the Central Plains and the Western Regions have frequent musical and cultural exchanges, such as the Guzi music, Shule music, Gaochang music, Tianzhu music, such as foreign foreign music have been introduced to the Central Plains, in which the "Capricorn Drum" is an important percussion instrument in the status of these musical instruments. Because of its high pitch and penetrating power, the capricorn drum was regarded as the leader of the eight tones by Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Xuanzong. In the palace Yan music, Tang Xuanzong often personally hit the capricorn drum and music, many aristocrats are also good at this, hit the capricorn drum has become a fashion.

The Tang Dynasty Capricorn Drum not only reached a high level of performance skills, and produced a number of works, such as the Tang Xuanzong created dozens of Capricorn Drum solo, which is more famous for "rain shower bells" and so on. Li Bai wrote in his poem describing the performance of the capricorn drum: "The raining flowers fall in a long time, and the noisy celestial music sounds. The celestial corridor vibrates the Dharma drum, and the four corners call for the phoenix zither." Bai Juyi wrote in "The Dance of the Neishang and the Feathered Garments", "Twelve times in a hurry, jumping beads and shaking the jade, how clanging." It is the sound of the capricorn drum, the most prominent depiction of strong musical expression.

In the Dunhuang murals, Yungang Grottoes and other historical preservation of a variety of Kabuki map, we can see the waist drums Kabuki drumming and playing music posture delay. More types of waist drums, the Sui and Tang Dynasty Yan music often mentioned in the waist drums of musical instruments are hair drums, all the Tudan drums, staff drums, drums, drums, and drums and so on. The drum frame of the waist drum has wooden, there are porcelain fired, the so-called "large to tile, small to wood type, all wide head fiber belly" (Chen D "music book"). Waist drums are mostly drum frames on both ends of the skin, with leather strips through the tension, knocking out the sound, the sound of music thumping, with penetrating power.

Waist drums have different ways of expression, you can sit on the ground in the Kabuki band, hands beat the drums for the music and dance accompaniment, you can also hang the drums on the chest, in the feast and drink music and dance while dancing to its weight, mobilizing the dancers and the viewers in the heart of the sense of rhythm. Bai Juyi described the Hu Xuan *** "heart should be strings, hands should be drums" just shows the interdependence of melody and rhythm.

From the macro point of view of the development of drum music, if the traditional drum music in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties had a fairly prosperous development, then, since the Sui and Tang dynasties, with the introduction of waist drums and other musical instruments from the Western region, and brewed a prosperous period of the development of drum music in China.
