Fuqin pays attention to the word "meaning"

Fuguqin is to pay attention to a word "meaning". In a windless and empty place, burn a stick of incense, the solitary smoke rises straight up, touches the sick place, swirls the wind and clouds, and the dancing solitary smoke has the soul of music...

When enjoying the guqin, at least be calm. There seems to be no instrument more rustic than the timbre of the guqin. At first glance, it is simple and hoarse, and because the volume is not high, it also plays like a monologue.

Fuqin pays attention to the word

I have also listened to its ensemble with other instruments, and somehow, I always feel that it has lost its original character because of its flattering. Perhaps, only loneliness will keep the sage's quietness from the guqin from being drowned in the garish and noisy.

The music is like a freehand ink painting, leaving a blank for your imagination. What it expresses is the yearning for a peaceful rural life, an epiphany after the world, a kind of indifference after the vicissitudes of life. Although the temperament of the guqin is calm, once it erupts, it also has the power of a volcanic eruption. For example, "Flowing Water" is only a seven-string solo, but it also presents a magnificent symphony like the Yellow River.

Water droplets, trickles, creeks, then shoals, rapids, waterfalls, and then the music slides back and forth one by one, pushing the water into the big rivers wave after wave... The striking part of the song is the performance In the torrent part, the ten fingers of the violinist roll all over the lyre, the sound is chasing the sound, and the string is chasing the string, making you almost believe that it is the sound of a magic qin.

In the empty city plan, Zhuge Liang used a guqin to retreat. The enemy troops approached the city, but the city was empty of talents, and the wind was blowing. Among Western musical instruments, the piano is known as the king of musical instruments; among Chinese national musical instruments, the guqin undoubtedly represents the essence of traditional Chinese culture, and its kingly style is irreplaceable for any musical instrument.
