Chapter 117 The Power of Notation
Chapter 117 The Power of Simplified Score
When the willow catkins flew in, Yan Ruhua was scolding the disciple: "This little song uses Shang tune, not Gong tune. If your sound is low, you must raise it as a whole. In this section, your beat is wrong.
Now, come back!”
The little disciple was taught in panic and played the music score again.
Yan Ruhua then turned her head and looked at Liu Xufei who appeared at the door of the piano room: "Come in, what's wrong with you?" Yan, who was aloof during the performance, was even more harsh in private, and all the disciples dared not be arrogant in front of her.
through.
Finally, Liu Xufei had become accustomed to the master's temper and really felt that the matter was serious. So he did not retreat, but instead went up to him and gave a gift to the master first: "Xufei has met the master."
Yan Ruhua nodded and frowned: "Speak quickly if you have something to do."
"Master, I just got a brand new way of notation here." Liu Xufei quickly took out a page of the simplified score he got from Fu Xuechen and handed it over with both hands.
Yan Ruhua took the simplified score and glanced at it. At the first moment, she felt that it was all like ghost paintings and could not understand it at all.
Liu Xufei stepped forward, starting with the seven basic tone symbols, then bass marks, treble marks, beat marks, even notes, etc., and all the meanings used in this simplified score are discussed.
Once again.
In fact, there are not many musical symbols involved in the simplified score, and only a few can cover all of them. No matter how complex the song is, they can be fully expressed with these symbols. In addition to the few Chinese characters that express the tune,
It no longer uses other Chinese characters. Just the simplicity and effort-saving writing is more powerful than the original notation method.
Yan Ruhua's expression turned from inadvertently to surprise at the beginning. She raised the simplified note in her hand and looked at her apprentice seriously: "This is not something you can think of, where did you get it from.
?”
"Master, didn't you recommend me the day before yesterday. Go to the Fu Mansion of the Marquis of Jingbei to teach the Guzheng, the daughter of the Fu family?" Liu Xufei said that this matter was still a bit shocking: "The talent of Miss Fu in music is that of the musical talent of Miss Fu."
It was simply unavailable for a hundred years! In just half an hour of teaching, she learned and mastered all the knowledge of music theory.”
"Hmm?" Yan Ruhua frowned. Why didn't she notice that Liu Xufei was such an exaggerated person?
Liu Xufei hadn't noticed that her master's reputation had dropped sharply, and she still praised Fu Xuechen in her tone: "This method of recording was temporarily figured out in order to facilitate her learning and memory!"
Yan Ruhua carefully observed the apprentice's expression and found in confusion that although the other party's performance was a bit exaggerated, it did not seem to be lying, but it looked very sincere. She sincerely thought that she was amazing.
But as far as she knows, the little daughter of the Fu family who studied Guzheng was at most thirteen years old. The people of the Fu family even said that their legitimate daughter had not learned any music knowledge before.
Now tell me, is that he a genius? Not only can he learn all the music theory knowledge in a single lesson, but he also creates new music symbols that are simpler and more direct and can make people master the rhythm faster? Why is she so unbelievable?
"Master, do you think we should try it and use this method to record the score?" Liu Xufei finally suggested that she really wanted to rewrite all the scores she had in hand using this new method.
"As long as the Fu family daughter doesn't object, you can use it if you want to." Yan Ruhua glanced at her and said lightly: "Tomorrow and tomorrow, you will continue to teach that little daughter according to your plan. Don't be too much.
Arbitrary, I only took one lesson and decided that he was a genius. I observed more and avoided being misleading!"
Liu Xufei didn't think she would be misleading, so she said, "There is a daughter of the Hou Mansion. Learning the Guzheng is just a preference and cultivating sentiment." It doesn't rely on this thing to make a living. What's the point of lying to her?
But Liu Xufei did not dare to disobey his master, so he just obediently responded to "yes".
When Yan Ruhua saw her listening, she nodded and said, "Go back! Stay this score with me first. Remember not to easily spread this unverified private notation method."
Liu Xufei agreed. As long as the master is willing to leave the score to study, it means that the master also thinks this new score is good. She believes that it won’t take long, and the master will not be able to help but agree to using this simplified score to replace the previous Chinese character score.
After busy all day long, Yan Ruhua, who had no performance tasks, was able to stay at home and enjoy a moment of her own tranquility.
Resting on the comfortable and soft imperial concubine's couch, he picked up the book that had not been finished after many days. Yan Ruhua planned to read the rest of the book before going to bed, but just when she opened the bookmark of the book
On that page, she suddenly sat up straight and carefully read the storybook.
Nothing else, there is a symbol that expresses the page number at the footer of this book. She has never paid special attention to these symbols before, but just regarded them as symbols made by the book shop to facilitate their own layout.
But she just recognized it, and some of these symbols were exactly the same as the simple symbols left to her by Liu Xufei!
Seven new styles of the sound and name symbols, 1234567, Liu Xufei sang them "Dorai Mifa Saulasi", and there is also a symbol that indicates recession 0, plus 8 and 9 that are included in the slogan but not in the simplified score.
Yan Ruhua suddenly realized that she understood what the symbols on the footer of this page meant!
If she was not mistaken, 1 would be the number one, 012345678910, which clearly represents the number zero to ten! Then 11 would be eleven, 12 would be twelve... 20 would be twenty, absolutely right!
It turns out that the inspiration for the young daughter of the Fu family to develop a new music score recording method comes from here!
After understanding the page number symbols on the storybook, Yan Ruhua couldn't help but flip through the storybook and specifically identified these digit symbols twice or three times. The more she looked at them, the more wonderful she felt!
Compared with the original number writing method, the new numerical symbols in this book are too easy to recognize and memorize and master! I am afraid that even five or six-year-old children can easily learn these numbers.
Yan Ruhua thought of the simplified notes 1234567 made by the little daughter of the Fu family.
If that little daughter had learned and mastered the numerical symbols in the storybook, it would not have been completely unimaginable that she would have created new musical symbols based on this at a young age.
Maybe they are smart geniuses, not what they think, they plagiarized things from someone.
Wait! The script is published and circulated very large. As long as you know literacy and family background, people will buy some scripts to go back as a pastime. It is impossible to say that only the little daughter of the Fu family and Yan Ruhua discovered the script.
Page number symbols correspond to numbers zero to nine, and many people must have understood these new numerical symbols.
Then, when more and more people become familiar with these numerical symbols and use them, wouldn’t it be twice the result with half the effort to promote the new musical score recording method created based on numerical symbols?
Yan Ruhua gradually felt excited. She didn't know that Emperor An of Yuan had ordered the Ministry of Rites to do preliminary preparations for promoting the use of simplified Chinese characters, and the simplified Chinese characters contained the new set of 012645789.
But she has her own judgment. Such simple and easy-to-use numerical symbols can naturally be easily recognized and loved by people. With the issuance of the script, it will sooner or later be promoted and adopted by more people.
"Ying'er! Ying'er!" Yan Ruhua called out loudly to her personal maid.
"Miss, I'm here." Ying'er soon appeared outside her bedroom door: "What are the instructions for Miss?"
"Call the little girl I took in last month over here, and call it Xiaowan."
Yan Ruhua ordered, Ying'er was a little surprised, but she didn't ask any more questions, but just left and soon brought a thin girl with a dish-like face from the next room.
The little girl's father Yan Ruhua is, but the little girl's mother is a friend Yan Ruhua met in the Jiaofangsi when she was young. The friend was married back to be a concubine. She originally thought it would be a good ending, but she didn't expect it to be a good ending.
The man's family quickly fell down and was unable to revive his family business. He finally threw away his friend, mother and daughter and slipped back to his hometown.
At the beginning of the year, the little girl was unable to travel thousands of miles to join her biological father. She had to follow her mother's instructions before her death and asked Yan Ruhua to go to Yan Ruhua's door. Yan Ruhua's compassion moved and accepted the little girl and kept it for the time being.
At home, she has not found a good solution to how to settle this little girl in the future.
"Xiaowan has met Aunt Yan!" Although the little girl is young, she is very polite, and she is a little timid.
"Xiaowan, don't be afraid, auntie just asks you something." Yan Ruhua tried her best to make herself look so cold, showing the child a kind smile.
Xiaowan nodded seriously: "Auntie, ask."
"Have you learned to recognize music scores? Have your mother taught you to sing music?" Yan Ruhua asked.
Xiaowan's expression collapsed and she shook her head: "No, my mother has only hummed a song for me, and has never taught me to sing a song."
"It's okay!" Yan Ruhua asked softly, "Would you please teach you?"
Xiaowan raised his head and his eyes lit up. He hurriedly nodded vigorously: "Okay! OK! Thank you aunt!"
"Okay, then aunt will teach you how to know seven sound symbols first!" Yan Ruhua took Xiaowan to the table, wrote down seven numeric symbols of 1234567 on the paper, and began to teach...
Two quarters of an hour passed quickly, and Yan Ruhua was surprised to find that Xiaowan quickly learned and mastered seven sound symbols in this very short time, and with the help of Dorami Fazorasi, seven different
With pronunciation, she can still accurately sing the corresponding tune after Yan Ruhua randomly disrupts the order of the seven-sounding and name symbols.
Although they are just some very short and simple jokes, without changing the tone and the beats are not changed, Xiaowan's speed of learning them is still too fast! It's amazingly fast!
Yan Ruhua then taught the treble with a small black dot above, the bass with a small black dot below, and the bar line representing the beat. Xiaowan also mastered it successfully after a while.
Xiaowan has just started to learn the mystery at this moment and doesn’t know a lot of characters. If she follows her past experience, Xiaowan should have to learn a lot of Chinese characters first. Without Chinese characters as a foundation, she has no way to learn music.
"Auntie, it turns out that learning music is so simple? Why don't I teach me?" Xiaowan was both happy and confused.
"..." Yan Ruhua was speechless. What should she say? Tell Xiaowan, in fact, she just met the musical symbols of this set of scores today. If Xiaowan's mother wants to teach her, she must teach her first.
Do you know the words "Ming Ruler"?
"Maybe your mother hasn't had time yet?"
Yan Ruhua finally had to use other reasons to make excuses, and drove Xiaowan back to her own house to rest on the grounds that it was too late and the child had to go to bed early.
Although Xiaowan can learn so quickly, it is because she is likely to have very excellent musical talent. It is an example. It cannot mean that others can learn so quickly. You still need to find other children to try it, but it doesn’t hinder it.
Yan Ruhua realized the power of this set of simplified scores. She gradually felt the weight of the simplified score that was held in her hand.
Xiaowan's success also made her realize many things she hadn't realized before.
Not to mention anything else, just talk about the many people in the middle school who are engaged in music-related professions, how many of them can read and read? Most people have no chance to read, and many of them are
People can sing music or perform, but they really memorize it with year after year of memory!
There is an idiom called "word of word", which originally originated from the teaching and inheritance method of folk art. The older generation of folk arts teaches the music they have mastered to their disciples. Both sides know literacy, and it's okay to know the score, but if one side knows the other.
If you don’t know it, or if you don’t know it, you can only teach it one by one and memorize it one by one.
But if we have the newly released simplified notation method, even the unreadable children can easily learn it. Do those old folk arts still need to be afraid that their disciples will be illiterate and forgetful, and lose their inheritance? No need!
Just by not having to read literacy, the merits created by the new music score will be great!
The more Yan Ruhua thought about it, the more she couldn't sit still. She thought that during the day, her little disciple had a bad memory and had admitted that she had made a mistake in scribing a bullet and a wrong zheng song. She simply returned to the table, took out a new paper and pen, and slowly, a little bit.
I tried to translate all the zheng music scores that I taught to my disciples during the day into new style music scores.
People who have learned Chinese character music scores can adapt well and quickly master new music scores, which is also a very important aspect to be examined.
The next morning, the next day, all the two disciples Yan Ruhua had been studying in the future called in front of him and spent half an hour teaching the symbols of the simplified scores to both of them.
It was really unexpected. Two disciples who had a long musical foundation learned a new score very smoothly. After familiarizing themselves with and mastering the seven digital notes, they understood other notes more quickly.
It's only a quarter of an hour, both of them will know it.
Only then did Yan Ruhua take out the zheng music score she had transcribed last night and asked the two disciples to try to play it while recognizing the score.
Although it was a little awkward and was far from beautiful, both disciples played it accurately without exception! This surprised both of them, and they praised the new score with no gaps.
Yan Ruhua nodded secretly. It seemed that the new score should be highly promoted.
On the other hand, Fu Xuechen didn't know how the simplified score she brought out would cause the musicians. She was still taking Zhu Jiuniang's painting class! Then she received a message from Xie: The imperial concubine invited Xie to the palace
Appreciating the flowers, she and Fu Rushuang also invited her sisters, and she had to tell the gentlemen about tomorrow's leave!
Chapter completed!
