Read"Bridge":On the Evolution of the Form of Late Qing Jiangnan Silk and Bamboo Ancient Melody Sihe
As the most crucial component of the musical form in Jiangnan silk and bamboo music,Sihe has assumed various appearances that are both characteristic and individualistic due to factors such as regional transmission,musical societies,musicians,and heritage throughout the development of this genre.Unfortunately,this highly complex and artistically valuable suite of Jiangnan silk and bamboo ensemble music is currently on the brink of being lost,making it difficult to find audio samples and performance information for this composition in the vibrant folk music community today.Therefore,the author endeavors to explore its true essence from historical scores,attempting to clarify the inherent relationships among melodies such as Sihe,Qingyin,Suqiao,Sihe Ruyi,and Xingjie Sihe through surviving gongche scores and folk gongche transcriptions.This research aims to investigate the prototype associations and formal differences between melodies of the same name from different periods and melodies with different names but the same tune,thereby delineating the historical evolution of the Sihe tune series over a century of Jiangnan silk and bamboo music history.Furthermore,this study seeks to discover and expound upon the development of musical ideas and structural logic in traditional Chinese silk and bamboo instrumental music through analysis of this most important suite of Jiangnan silk and bamboo compositions.
