He planted peonies in the Tang Dynasty

"Cui said, on that day, the Supreme Saint, Shen Tianshi, and Hong Taoist came back from looking at the fairy mountain and composed this song "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes"." "Out of Kucha, Chang'an has long been able to play this song." " It was probably presented by the Yang family in Xiliang."...

The neon clothes were only played in the princely mansion of the palace, but when the musicians put the bell, pan, qin, zither, sheng, xiao, and flute on the stage one by one, people were amazed, but it was just the four outfits of gold, stone, silk and bamboo. Personally, there are twelve times in one piece, and it takes an hour to play.

Su An still didn't see through the eyes of people who were lucky. When he plucked the strings, he couldn't remember whether it was Chang'an or Luoyang.

It starts with one bell, and goes six times before the preface. There is no dance, no beat, and the 26 jade pans ring staggeredly.A blind man, wearing a plain white loose-fitting coat with long sleeves, jumped up and fell from a high place, tapping out a cascade of sound like flowing water.

Here there are two sounds of gold and stone, the former chasing the latter, the taller chasing the lower, the musician is the dancer, like a crane passing through the clouds.

A string of five-stringed wheels pushes away the clouds and mist, and then, the zither and the zither flow out, and the musicians ponder and pitch, high mountains and flowing water.

The zither master has bright eyes, and the zither master has sword eyebrows.

Why does he use the piano?Among the etiquette, the ancient Shennong made the qin with seven strings and thirteen signs. It is a subtle and deep thing, which can withstand the weight of metal and stone; Down.

Why does he use the zither instead of the harp?The zither has a wide range of sound, loud volume, and clear and pleasant timbre. It is the most masculine musical instrument in the silk category. Its thirteen strings, which are originally the 26 strings of the zither, were created by two women fighting each other.

Last night, it was still the bright moon that fell on the Kyushu Lake.King Shou enters the palace to have an audience, and tells Lin Zhenzhen and Pei Shenfu to attend the banquet.

On the way home, the two met the dancers and musicians who had just entered the troupe, and heard the sound of zithers coming from Huxin Island.The prince was fostered by the imperial family outside the palace since he was a child. He has a gentle temperament, but for some reason, the music played that night is so solid and powerful, as if he met a fairy in his lonely and melancholy life.

Lin Zhenzhen was sitting under the pavilion, hooking the string with her left hand. At the beginning of the movement, it was the phoenix-eyed hand created by Pei Shenfu.Pei Shenfu was sitting cross-legged by the lake, and only played the tune for the first time, and three parts of it was the madness of Guangling's "Dou Baicao".

For many years, Lin Zhenzhen complained to Lin Ye that the tattooed man from the neighboring shop Shule was neither good at Chinese, nor could he use a lever. , Grab your own scenery.

"Luo Er plucks the strings with fingers; Luo Er uses nectar to adjust oil; Luo Er bounces the pipa, and asks Wu Daozi to paint..."

"Mr. Lin uses jade picks; Mrs. Lin bounces the pipa with both hands; Mrs. Lin practices the Kucha dance, playing Hu Xuan day and night..."

As everyone knows, when Pei Shenfu first saw this jade-faced young gentleman, he felt that he was in the south of the Yangtze River, in Yangzhou.

His left and right hands are so slender and dexterous, they can cut the spring breeze, his phoenix eyes are full of poplar flowers and drizzle, he and the other Lin Gongzi dance lightly, wildly and freely, summoning thousands of willow branches by the lake to come They are companions.

In order to imitate Pei's talisman, Lin's body and musical instrument were tempered into one, which is called "Combination", and Pei's talisman was to chase Lin's, so that the craftsmen of the music workshop widened the neck of the Shule pipa and narrowed the box. , improved like a handle of Ruan Xian.

If there is no struggle, how can a song be spread to the world?

Until this night, Lin Zhenzhen stopped the strings, still wanted to fight, still wanted to improve her musical skills, but unfortunately, listening to Shou Wang's zither, he suddenly felt that there was no place for him in that song.Pei Shenfu felt the same way, but he didn't point it out.

Every year flowers bloom and fall,

There is always a new look to replace the old one.

Pei Shenfu said: "Mr. Lin, there will definitely be thousands of changes in this song in the future. We will try our best, but we can only monopolize it." Lin Zhenzhen is more sensitive, afraid that others will look down on him from now on, laughing Looks good.

After finishing speaking, he also stroked the faint wrinkles at the corners of his eyes: "But I only played this section in Wufeng Tower, and played the wind and clouds. I know how many people in the audience are famous all over the world because of the two or three lyrics. I am also content."

Pei Shenfu then made an agreement with Young Master Lin to devote his whole life to this song of neon clothes, and to hide his name in the future.

Returning to Wufeng Tower, a note of overtones of five strings swayed in the landscape painting composed of qin and zither.

The rhythm became faster and faster, and the five strings continued to be played. Su An closed his eyes, urged the clouds to clear the fog, and summoned the bamboo sound to join in quickly.

Why use the sheng first, and then make the flute go hand in hand?The sound of the flute is distant and desolate, and the sound of the flute is high-pitched and lively. Both have angular sound quality, while the sheng is the earliest in ritual music, with a honest and elegant character.

At this moment, the white robes of Jinshi musicians were flying, the qin and zither were sitting still, but they were like flowing water, and the three Zhuyin were wearing green shirts, clearly the color of the mountains, but they wandered in the field at leisure, their eyebrows danced and their spirits were radiant, but all the movements in the world were disturbed. confused.

In the chaos, five strings pass by again, and the luthier and zither master look at each other, raise their breath, and sing in between.

Su An was caught in the storm again, he could only hear the petals flying all over the sky, and could no longer see the face on the river bank clearly.

At this point, the prologue is transferred to the beat sequence, the five strings are strummed to measure the beat, the four voices are unified in rhythm, and the world returns to normal.

The mountains don't move, but the water flows forever.

On the evening of the day before yesterday, Lei Haiqing pulled Su An to pick up white flowers downstairs, but Su An refused.Lei Haiqing was stubborn, he really ran for a trip, but came back empty-handed, thinking that the flower must have been ravaged by the shoes and boots, and his eyes were red.

Fortunately, when he returned to the courtyard, several newcomers took turns to tease him and touch him, which made him feel better.

"Little friend Haiqing has such a temperament, he cries quickly and laughs quickly." Li Mu, Xu Hezi and the others were all there, and it happened that the Liyuan envoys Ah Man and Yun Rong to record the household registration, "Yes, by the side of Concubine Mei What's the name of that host?"

Lei Haiqing rubbed his eyes, he didn't want to say that the Zhangyan was Xingsheng's sister, every time he went in and out, not only his body was searched, but even Concubine Mei's actions were monitored.It's just that Concubine Mei is generous, never complained, and greeted everything with a smile.

"You guys know how to bully me." Lei Haiqing tapped the scorpion in his hand, "Let me ask, if the Supreme Being sentenced Huaizhou to win today, do you dare to be as brave as Su Fengfeng, and let Governor Guo turn pale?" Flower hairpin?"

Li Mu asked back: "Do you dare to say it?" The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.Lei Haiqing felt that he should show his ambition: "I don't play songs against my heart. If the five notes are not correct, I would rather be smashed to death in front of the steps."

Xu Hezi hurried forward and covered Lei Haiqing's small mouth: "You." Li Mu sighed with a smile: "Little friend Haiqing, if there is such a day, I might go boating on the Chu River. some bamboo to provide for the family."

Xu Hezi blushed.

It was at this time that Li Mu decided to let Lei Haiqing win the top three with his own song, and repay Concubine Mei.

Under the control of the five strings, the rhythm of the sequence is continuous and stable, and the agile mountains and rivers converge into transparent water droplets, which fall from the Wufeng Tower and create waves in the north and south, one drop, two drops, three drops...

Although there are only eight people, the situation is very different when each instrument finds its place in the chord.The sound of gold and stone can be transmitted very far, and once the zither and flute exert their strength, they will resonate thousands of times.

The voices of the eight people are not only stronger than the 500 people in Huaizhou, but also can be heard clearly by the whole Luoyang city.

Su An was still waiting for someone.Although the breakthrough of Wuxian was given to Lin Shi, Li Mu and Lei Haiqing, the opponent he really cared about was Li Guiyan.Su An's respect for Li Guiyan stems from a piece of Xiqin and a piece of "Touhu Le".

He didn't expect that Li Guiyan used the five strings for the first seven times to lead the song, but he only used the Jiegu to break through the realm of Qingyue.

Jiegu is not included in Qingyue Jinshisizhu. For Qingyue Faqu "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes", especially when it comes to breaking through the complicated and urgent rhythms, it is not the difference between one mallet and two mallets, but unprecedented. legend.

Breaking through is a legend.

After discussing Wuxian skills in Hanliang Hall, Li Guiyan left, not because he didn't want to talk to Su An, but because he knew that he was invincible.He regards Su An as a lifelong best friend, and he is not noble, but sees his own shadow.

After arriving in Luoyang, one day, Li Longji was tired of government affairs and leisurely. He privately summoned Li Guiyan to ask about Su Mo's pipa.Li Guiyan thought about it, and couldn't bear to put Su An in a dilemma, so he reported that the timbre of this pipa was very poor.

Li Longji still didn't let go of his greed, and said with a smile: "Wuxian, where the soul breaks, what can you replace?" Li Guiyan said: "Your Majesty often says that the Jiegu is the leader of the octave. Longji said: ""The Autumn Wind is High", that is the agreement between Song Guangping and Yao Yuanchong." Li Guiyan said: "I know the crime, but I am still willing to give it a try."

Guiyan knew Li Longji well.

Counting with his fingers, Li Guiyan said that he had discounted fifty drumsticks. Sure enough, Li Longji told him firmly in order to protect the friendship between the old monarch and his ministers: "Fifty is nothing, I have already discounted three cabinets." Li Guiyan: "..."

Breaking through, Li Guiyan guarded the wonderful luck for Su An.

Until the dance is over, the tune becomes brighter, and the musical instruments and voice actors return to their respective positions. From then on, the only protagonists on the stage are maiko.Two dancers wearing nine-riding fairy buns, peacock green clothes, and seven-treasure necklaces, both entered the hall and painted with water sleeves.

This is a couple dance, supporting each other like one person, and suddenly the ink and colors are thickened on the exquisite picture that has been brewing for seven times.

When people saw the soft and boneless figure, they said it was a celestial girl who went down to earth to dance flowers, and they all lay down and cried.Who knows where the Liyuan is, and who knows why I snot and cry because of this unattainable song?

Su An sat behind the band, still using strings as a guide, flicking and picking, and calmly greeted the river of tears on the other side.

Not long ago, he received a letter from Chang'an Peony Workshop, and he knew that He Lian had arrived in Tianzhu safely, and Xiuxin was pregnant again. What did not prevent him was that Lu Lan ran to the workshop every three days, and was very enthusiastic to help the tea shop. mother.

It was Xu Kuo who took out the gold bracelet of the "former prince" from his pillow, and found out that after the Marquis of Song's mansion was seized, the Murong family was not enslaved, and Meng Yue sold all his belongings and took care of Zhang Jian. , and fled to the end of the world with her.

Just because, when he was sour and sad, looking at himself in pity, she sat in the corner of Peony Square and gave him appreciation.

A piece of neon clothes, an hour, after the sixteen pieces of Liyuan are played, it is already the evening of October 23th, Kaiyuan [-].

All families in Liyuan have their own rules, only Sheng Judgment, Li Guiyan is the first, Lin's is the second, Lei Haiqing is the third...

On both sides of the north and south banks, how much love is still surging, Su An put away his luck, stood up and looked at the household building in the east of Tianjin Bridge on the opposite bank.Even though his posture is humble and his body is dusty, he still can't escape his desires, but on this day, after all, he has accomplished this Dharma song that has been passed down to the world.

Regarding the musical characteristics of "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes Song", it involves its mode, structure, dance, instrumental music, development and other aspects.

First of all, people in Tang Dynasty all hold the "shang tune theory" about its mode.

1. In "Tang Huiyao" Volume 33 "Zhu Le", "Brahman" is recorded as Huang Zhongshang, and the time is more tuned; 2. In Tang Nanzhuo's "Jiegulu", it is stated that "Brahman" belongs to Taizushang ( 3. Bai Juyi's "Songyang Guanye Zuo Nishang" also has "Kaiyuan leftovers are bleak, and the tune of Jinqiu is Shang".

And from the records of Kui Baishi, it can be seen that the music scores of the Tang Dynasty preserved in the Song Dynasty are still Shang tunes: "Baishi Taoist Song Collection" Volume 3 "The First Preface in Neon Clothes"

Xiao Xu said: "In the old book of Yue Gong, I got the eighteen songs of "Ni Chang" in Shang Tiao, all of which are empty and without words. According to Shen's rhythm, "Ni Chang" is the tune, this is Shang Tiao."

Second, about its structure.

One is "twelve times", such as "Twelve Rituals and Music" in Volume 21 of "New Book of Tang Dynasty": "Hexi Jiedushi Yang Jingzhong presented "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes Song" twelve times";

The second is "thirteen times". Song Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Bi Tan" Volume 17 "Painting and Calligraphy" said: ""Neon Clothes Song" has thirteen repetitions, the first six repetitions have no beats, and the seventh repetition is called repetition. From now on, there is beat and dance.”

The third is "thirty times". For example, in Bai Juyi's "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes, There are Dance Characters, Songs and Weizhi", the preface is 6 times, the preface is 18 times, and the song is 12 paragraphs.

Due to the lack of historical materials, I really can't confirm which is correct, but I can find that there are similarities in these statements, that is, there are scattered prefaces and middle prefaces in this song.There is no beat in the loose sequence, so it is soothing, and the rhythm in the middle sequence is very strong, and then dance elements are added.

Again it's dancing.

In the court of the Tang Dynasty, there were two types of dances in this song: solo dance, pair dance and team dance.As we all know here, there are too many poetry records, so I won't talk about it.

Finally, the matching instrument.

The instrumental music used in Faqu in Liyuan is mainly the traditional silk and bamboo music. Bai Juyi wrote in his note in "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes: There Are Dance Characters and Songs and Weizhi": "At the beginning of Fanfaqu, all the music was not in the same place. This is also the case at the beginning of the preface of "Neon Clothes." The verses in this poem related to the musical instruments of this song include "Qingxiao, zither and flute are mixed together, and the sound of playing and blowing is winding."

Also in Bai Juyi's other poems, there are many musical instruments involved in this song. For example, in "Lying Listening to Faqu Nishang", there is "Jinpan Yusheng has been tuned for a long time, and the corner pillow of the gums often sleeps late", such as "Pipa Yin and Preface" has a pipa For example, in "Meng De De Xin Poetry", there is "then play the sheng song as a movement", such as "Prince Jin Temple", there is a sheng and so on.In addition, Zhang Hu's "Four Poems of Huaqing Palace" has a flute, "The sky is heavy and the night is still young, and the green clouds are dancing and dancing. A jade flute fills the sky, and the moon is full of the Lishan Palace." Yuan Zhen's "The Story of Yingying" Play it with the piano.

In this way, the musical instruments mentioned in these verses are summarized, there are about pan, xiao, zither, flute, sheng, pipa, qin and so on.

In the end, how did this song flow into the folks?

First, during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, palace musicians flowed into the folk due to the Anshi Rebellion, and brought this song into the folk for performances.For example, in Gu Kuang's "Listening to Liu An Singing", Liu An, a court musician in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, sang this song for Gu Kuang.

Second, officials who had watched the performance of this song in the palace brought it to the folk because of their proficiency in music, typical examples such as Li Bai and Bai Juyi

Third, the musicians in the palace taught this song to the folk disciples.For example, in Yuan Zhen's "Pipa Ge Ji Guaner, who also taught Tieshan, and later titled Yuefu", it is recorded that Li Guaner once learned pipa from court musician Duan.

Fourth, court musicians participated in music performances outside the palace and brought it into the folk. (as in this article)

There are many discrepancies in the records of this song in the Tang Dynasty.As an important masterpiece of Faqu, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty attached great importance to it. Xuanzong recorded it as Liyuan music and personally went to Ligong to guide the musicians to play it; That is, Kaiyuan Gagaku came to transform this song.

People in the Tang Dynasty regarded Faqu as the sound of China. Faqu was so valued and popular at that time, which also reflected the development of Chinese music in the court and folk at that time.From this we can also reflect on the relationship between Chinese music and Hu music in the Tang Dynasty. The development of Faqu in the Tang Dynasty just shows that the development of Chinese music was not discouraged by the spread of Hu music or assimilated by Hu music.

Flick off his clothes and hide his achievements and fame deeply. Su Tianwang is about to retire.
