The Melodic Characteristics of Jiangnan Folk Songs

I was born in Jiangnan, it's a pity that there is not much singing here in my home, or no one sings ------ no one sings folk songs belonging to the toiling masses, either I guard the border for the motherland or Jay Chou

Maybe no one sang it here in my home at all? The original sad bunch? There is no music of a group is very poor

I myself think:

Jiangnan folk song is no matter what rules and techniques, the only technique is to imitate, and the source! I don't have the strength if I have to look for it

What about to be like the Jiangnan melody, you have to use the pentatonic scale! This is the mold. ---- There is no such thing as a harmonic framework, you want to be pure then treat the melody as an accident. You can even, within the phrase, discard the sense of dominant, I think that's how they used to do it

The melody is about jumping or not jumping, and using pentatonic scales doesn't seem to summarize the rules of this, the only thing it avoids is a minor second, but there's no denying that pentatonic scales are much more rounded

From the point of view of harmonic compositions, it's the fact that you can start a chord with any chord, with any chord, with any chord, with any chord. Chord starts, any chord start can be a key, think of it this way: for example, if you are sure you want to write a song in the key of C major, and you can use chord starts like E chord, G chord, D chord, in pure pentatonic situations the harmony is almost entirely harmonic with five tones, and if you use a non-dominant chord you can think of it as an E (Horn mode), a D (Merchant mode), but please note that this is not a harmonic composition, but it is a harmonic composition. But notice that you use the last two keys would you end with a D or an E? Try it! So maybe the pentatonic scale cares about a natural rhythmic rule ---- rise and fall, and the falling tone is either G or C. The key of A is clearly a minor style, and its arrangement is a standard minor, but note that it can also end in G

Probably think of all this, and then think of your head.
