Five Known Vegetarian Tablature Four Studies,

Guqin is one of the important component parts in Chinese culture. And it is also the representative of Chinese music. Guqin's music, with a long history, rich documents that are comparatively kept perfect and handed down for a thousand years without being halted, has been considered as an alive fossil in ancient Chinese music by academic circles. There are some kinds and styles of well-known music in history, which were lost because of some reasons. By means of this kind of musical instrument, we could trace to its source and do some investigation on the ancient. We have made great success that have attracted worldwide attention in collecting rich documents and the research of musical learning since modern times. However, we are lack of monographic study in some respects about the subject of musical instrument, which means that we are short, in summing up them theoretically and in setting up the basic documents. Especially we can't completely understand the regular knowledge in the structure of music composition itself or the instrument itself. Therefore we have a long way to go in comparing them with what we have done in the respect of pulling in order the documents of almost a hundred years. Under the advice of tutors, Mr. Wu Zhao and Mr. Wu Guo dong, I think that it is basic work to study the pieces of Qin's music itself in the subject of musical instrument research. In case such progress is made in the field, it will give us great help correctly recognizing the changing history of the development in Chinese ancient musical style, and well-understanding the close relations between Qin's music and the life of ancient culture; and it also provide some reference materials for a deep study of the Chinese musical history.In order to give a brief account of the trace about Guqin's music development and get to know more knowledge on the evolution history of the style in the pieces of musical instrument. I have collected four representative pieces from Wu Zhi Zhai Qin's Score to analyze and study. This article is divided into six chapters. Chapter One: Introduction. Chapter Tow: The Historical Background of Wu Zhi Zhai Qin's Score Published. Chapter Three: The Musical Analysis of Four Pieces. Chapter Four: The Aesthetic Atmosphere of Qin's Music in Ming and Qing Dynasties According to the Four Pieces. Chapter Five: The Artistic Achievements of Qin's Music in Ming and Qing Dynasties According to the Four Pieces. Chapter Six: Concluding Remarks.This article is analyze, describe and explain the Qin's music. It includes my opinion, the regularity which is summarized; raised problems and obtained conclusion. I have sorted out the spreading and changing of the recorded documents and background materials for Qin's music. I'll examine the specific fingering, the sound, sentences, paragraphs and the whole structure arrangement for it. At the same time, I have referred to play record and recorded music score of modem representative players and devote myself to the study of the ancient people. The history of the development of the changing shape of the Qin and the special method of playing it, which might affect it's music directly or indirectly. For example, the character in rhythm, decorated effect and the changing of sounds. I hope to get know clearly about Qin's music in the following respects. Through the demonstration: As for the cream of Chinese music; Qin's music has centralized reflection in Chinese musical aesthetics and interest. Qin's music has experienced a-thousand-year development and it was already developing in a deeper and various ways in Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is the rich cultural heritage and should be well taken care of.
