Qin 琴 – 赵家珍 LP

Description

琴是谜。
这件三千多年历史的中国弦乐器，轻抚过它躯体上因岁月风化和鸣奏震动而留下的各种断纹，就仿佛摩挲过一片有生命的肌肤……牛毛断、冰纹断、流水断、蛇腹断、梅花断……那样温润而又些许阻滞的奇异触感，令心中电光火石般微微震撼。
那些形如天书的减字谱，在蝉翼般脆薄的泛黄卷册上，令人熟悉而陌生的每个字，都高度凝炼地概括了双手演奏的徽位、指法、弦名、点板，不可思议地以方块字的形象将千年以前的音乐纤毫毕现地传真到今日。
琴是道。琴有天地。琴有七弦。琴是君子。琴是中国。

专辑撷选之十余琴曲，大都为三千载琴史上奉入庙堂的不朽名篇。从现今存世最古的《幽兰》，到蕴藉伯牙子期“知音”逸事的《流水》，从写尽魏晋名士放旷意气的《广陵散》，到取意唐诗画意的《捣衣》、《阳关三叠》，经典琴曲尽入彀中；更特意收录现代作品《春风》，以北域新疆的热烈奔放风格脱颖而出，令人耳目一新。
“I have said before that playing the qin for others to hear is hardly worth speaking about. Playing it at small gatherings of the like-minded only provides for discussion and conferral, and is likewise not worth speaking about. Playing while I alone listen is almost worth speaking about, but it is not equal to playing without listening.”
– Zhang Ziqian 張子謙 (1899-1991)
