The Connotation Change of Names of Yanyue Modes in the Ming and Qing Dynasties
The names of Yanyue modes used in the northern and southern tunes after the Yuan Dynasty remained the same as those used in the Song Dynasty,but their role of indicating a specific key and mode changed after the early Ming Dynasty.During the Qing Dynasty,a Yanyue mode name no longer indicated a gong system.This change was due to a shift from literati writing lyrics according to music to writing lyrics according to rules and rhymes,and the root cause lies in the requirements of the development of folk music with traditional Chinese theatre as its main focus during the Yuan,Ming,and Qing dynasties.It is precisely under the impetus of the development of folk music and the influence of other factors that,with the connotation change of names of Yanyue modes,the established Yanyue modes were eventually replaced by the seven gong-che modes widely used in later generations.
