Some qin masters do not approve of composing new songs on the guqin, saying that it is enough to inherit the tradition and play the old tunes. Is this right?
The root of this idea is that Guqin has more than 3,000 traditional pieces that can be learned or notated. At first glance, the task of creating new pieces does not seem very urgent. But looking at the historical periods since the Six Dynasties, there are many newly created qin pieces in each period. So in our era, it would be a pity to ignore the creation of qin music and leave no new creation of qin music. So I think piano players can choose according to their different preferences. If you like to study ancient songs, you can study traditional songs; if you like to create new songs, you can do this work, so that you can show your strengths.
