doubt?
1: Is it called music every time you sing?
2: "Notation" before the world did not have music?
3: What exactly is Ancient Chinese Music? What is the form of Tang and Song dynasty music?
4: Is your "Chinese aesthetic" really Chinese?
Many of the "facts" we blurt out are the result of "space-time confusion."
For example, many "millennium memories":
Baijiu has a history of thousands of years (distilled liquor has a short history, as early as the Yuan Dynasty)
Brewing tea has been drunk for a thousand years (brewing method since the Ming Dynasty, Tang took tea as a dish to eat)
Sichuan people have been eating spicy for a thousand years (chili peppers entered China in the Ming Dynasty, and only prevailed in the Qing Dynasty)
The qipao is Hanfu (the qipao comes from the qiren, and there are almost no Han elements in the Central Plains)
Guoxue has been 5,000 years old (the term "Guoxue" is very late, originating from the May Fourth period of the last century, and ancient books are not available)
Although these media have mentioned a lot, I still have to sweat for Ma Weidu. He reiterated that the "qipao Han element is less" will not give another bite of the old cylinder, that is, the mouth of "Sima Guang smashing the cylinder". Obviously, for the matter of "the history of cylinder building", Zhao Dongmei, a professor of history at Peking University, has no confidence. But Mr. Ma was still under siege.
In April 2022, Ma Weidu ended "Toot Toot", and in the final "Toot Toot", Mr. Ma tended to play a "time assassin". He spends most of his time "correcting" to tell you "the time when a concept arises." Starting from the Tang poems and Song Ci, Mr. Fired at "Common Sense", you may not understand the meaning of such a toss, eggs are delicious, why should I go to find hens. One of the "time assassins" mentioned in this article, Feng Mantian, may give you the answer.
Feng Mantian's father is Feng Shaoxian, a predecessor of national music, who did not expect that the most black person in the profession was his son, and this "black powder" continued to black himself in the public media until 2022. But he was in pain and happy, because his son's professional prestige surpassed his own, and his son became the top in the national music industry.
Many years ago, when Mantian showed Chinese folk music to the West, he was already a very good folk music player. So the use of the domestic consensus of the classic "Horse Racing", but the scene of Western musicians generally believe that "Horse Racing" is not Chinese music, the theme, development, reproduction of the song is a typical Western sonata,
Man Tian then came to another song "Yang Whip Urges Horses to Transport Grain busy", and the result was the same, he found that the so-called folk music composed in the 1960s and 1970s, in the eyes of the West, its skeleton, chorus, and even the criteria for judging were Western, Feng Mantian was unable to refute it for a while, he thought: "What is Chinese music?" I can't find it."
The folk musician began to fall into a dilemma: "I think I know them (Western music) very well, but I suddenly feel strange about my own civilization" Since then, Mantian has begun to doubt the nationality of his father's music. Such an example is very similar to the styling controversy of the animated movie "The Lion Boy", if you can see the "Jinling Twelve Chao" sculpture in the Nanjing subway station, you can roughly sort out how long our "big eye" aesthetic history is.
The next Feng Mantian behaves more like an old cannon, and he is frantically asking what is real Chinese music.
In his context, there is no difference between the Central Chinese Orchestra and the Lanxiang Technical School. And he acts like a madman at all costs in search of Nguyen, known as "Nguyen Crazy". He bought the drawings of Tang Nguyen in Shosoin, Japan, and used X-rays to figure out the proportions of the body. It is said that the gold is ground into powder and poured into the water, and then a few thousand silks are dipped in water to form a golden string. 6000 pieces of one string. Since 1993, 47 pianos have been abolished for 17 years, and in 2010, they made "imitation tang hidden holes in Nguyen". Some media described the cost of this process as "scattered and almost suicidal".
Amazingly, "Ruan Crazy" Was a rock man before Big Brother, and was a member of China's first rock band "White Angel" in 1984. Many of the team members are famous, including Liu Junli, Liu Yijun, Qin Qi, Zang Tianshuo, Qin Yong, and Cheng Jin. Liu Yijun later became known as the "Old Fifth of the Tang Dynasty"; Liu Junli served as Cui Jian's bassist; Cheng Jin transformed into a producer and producer, supervising Zheng Jun's "Naked" and Xu Wei's "Blue Bird".

The name "White Angel" is quite crazy, a bit of a rush to save the world, but Feng Mantian really practiced it, almost single-handedly, maybe, maybe, or really saved the essence of a Chinese ancient music "true freedom". He told us one thing: Chinese music never needs to be "reliable."
"Unreliable" is not a pejorative meaning, Feng Mantian believes that this is a rather serious topic, until the Chinese Song Dynasty, Western monks invented the predecessor of the stave "four-line spectrum", and before this, the "Ruan" named after the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest has been popular in China for hundreds of years. In the past few hundred years, world music has not been gray, but brilliant.

If you have seen the "Tavern Piano" scene in the movie "The Devil's Violinist Paganini", you know that the so-called "line score" is nothing more than some waste paper for genius. Paganini didn't even want to publish his score. Many people think that this is to hide his original playing skills, but another possibility is that he looked down on everyone at the time, including the way of notation, which simply could not interpret his own music.

As a melon eater, I have listened to several concerts in small venues in five-star hotels as a "music blind". The hotel side is called "chords under the sky". It is said that this is the most equipped X-packed high-end casual. And the most touching part is not the famous song, but the improvisation of the performers, which wins the most applause is a visible fact. Isn't "improvisation" that isn't recorded music?
In 2022's "Shining Band": Shang Wenjie complained that Zhang Chu could not sing: "He sings differently every time", I think Feng Mantian may answer Shang Wenjie like this: "Why do you think that every time you sing the same is called music, only called a singer?" ”

Shang Wenjie in the show
According to Shang Wenjie's meaning, it is inconceivable that Zen Buddhism can pass on a stick and knock on a head and cut off an arm. On this level, Shang Wenjie's musical concept is as old as Feng Mantian's father, Feng Shaoxian. According to Man Tian, "the music of the Chinese Wei and Jin dynasties is not copied, but more like a heart transmission." Like Lao Tzu, like Zen Buddhism into the heart and spleen, the order is different.
Someone Gao once said that "the situation of music in a people with relatively rich music"
I saw my Uyghur brothers with my own eyes, so I took a guitar and said what it was, and I sang after an hour of ping-pong. I saw a lot of black musicians, who didn't know the score at all, didn't know what this little knot was, how to arithmetic, he listened to this sound, thought it was very good, just played. Han people use this thing as mathematics, and people have this thing flowing directly in their blood, and they can feel this thing. ”
In a world full of skies. Ancient Chinese music "is like a plant to feel life, feel the heavens and the earth, feel the sunshine"
This is consistent with the musical description of black people, which comes from DNA and spectrum and has nothing to do with it. The "recognition of music" and "to learn to draw must first sketch", it is likely to be a fart in the minds of contemporary artists. Because in the list of unbeknownst singers. It is written impressively by Michael Jackson, Huang Jiaju, Zhang Guorong, Pavarotti and so on.
When you think these are just individual cases, Feng Mantian will tell you a possibility
"Chinese music a thousand years ago was the norm without music to follow."
Michael Jackson, "Shudder"
When recording technology was popularized, the impermanence of ancient Chinese music also left some evidence, such as the example of the folk music "improvisational performers" in the sky was Ah Bing and his "Yixin Song", at that time, Ah Bing, who had not eaten for a week, left the first Chinese folk music recording "Erquan Yingyue". You have no idea what kind of "Yi Xin Qu" will be played next time by Ah Bing, who has eaten and drunk enough, which may be another recording of the fallacy, because he is different every time, whether this is the essence of Chinese music you will judge, but for Ah Bing's impromptu, Japanese conductor Seiji Ozawa said, "I should kneel down and listen...".

Feng Mantian used Ruan to pay tribute to Ah Bing in the final recording
Before that, the "assassin of time" in the music industry said:
"The performance just now was improvised"
As for who is the Bole of Ancient Chinese Music or the blind man, who will answer except the Japanese Tang Ruan?
As Zhang Chu's fellow stager He Yong said, "How is this question so difficult, everywhere is the correct answer."

Note: The views described in this article do not represent Feng Mantian's own views, Mr. Feng did not directly say that Ah Bing is improvised, and Ah Bing's improvisation comes from many reports and books, and will not be enumerated one by one.
