"Ni Dress and Feather Dance" is the "Ni Dress and Feather Dance", which is a Chinese court music and dance in the Tang Dynasty.

It is rumored that Tang Xuanzong ascended Luoyang Sanxiang Station, Wangnu Mountain, and was used to play when offering Lao Tzu in Taiqing Palace.

The song of neon clothes and feathers is a masterpiece of French music in the great song of the Tang Dynasty, and a masterpiece of Tang song and dance.

It is a shining pearl in the history of music and dance.

The dance music depicts the myth of Tang Xuanzong yearning for the gods and going to the Moon Palace to see the fairy, and his dance, music, and costumes all focus on depicting the ethereal fairyland and the image of the dancing fairy, giving people an immersive artistic feeling.

Xuanzong personally taught the disciples of Liyuan to play, and the palace maids sang, with 30 female artists, 10 each time.

Bai Juyi has the poem "Song of the Dance of Ni Clothes and Feathers", which makes a detailed description of the structure and dance posture of this song: the whole song has a total of 36 sections, with three parts: scattered prelude (6 paragraphs), middle prelude (18 paragraphs) and Qu Po (12 paragraphs), integrating song, dance and instrumental performance. The 36 sections of the song show the fairy story of Chinese Taoism.

However, after the original song weakened in the Tang Dynasty, it gradually disappeared.

During the Southern Tang Dynasty, Li Yu and the Great Zhou Dynasty made up most of it, but when Jinling City was broken, it was burned down by Li Yu's order. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Jiang Kui discovered the eighteen sections of the score of the Shang tune.

These fragments are still preserved in his "Songs of the White Stone Daoren".

What Su 13 said, the closest to the original version of "Ni Dress and Feather Song" is actually not close to the original original, but close to the version of Li Yu and Jiang Kui.

The real original, in fact, is lost.

Despite this, the version that has been handed down will not be too bad if you listen to it.

And among these versions, the version of Chen Qingfeng and their Qingling Pond Pavilion is the best.

It's not that other people's are bad, but Chen Qingfeng's them, and some flavors that others don't have.

This taste comes from Chen Qingfeng's in-depth understanding of neon clothes and feather clothes.

This comprehension lies in the reversal of the poems of the great poets of the Tang Dynasty, such as Bai Juyi, Yuan Zhen, Wang Jian, and Zhang Hu.

Many people's versions, their understanding of the song of Ni Shang and Feather Clothes, are often based on two legends and some stories of Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei.

These two legends, one from "Yang Taizhen's Biography" and the other from "Tang Huiyao".

"The Biography of Yang Taizhen" records:

The neon clothes and feather clothes are made by Xuanzong Dengsanxiang Station and Wangnu Jishan. Therefore, Liu Yuxi has a poem: "Seeing Emperor Xuanzong looking at the "Daughter Mountain Poem", the minister has a great feeling: the Kaiyuan Son of Heaven is full of everything, but it is a pity that the situation is urgent, and the Sanxiang Post looks at the fairy mountain, and it is classified as "Ni Clothes and Feather Song".

And "Tang Hui Yao" says:

In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty changed some music imported from the Western Regions in the way of carving stones too often, and this song was adapted from the "Brahmin Song".

As for the story of Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei, it is nothing more than a plot of unfinished immortals.

Based on these, the "Neon Clothes and Feather Song" was created, although it sounds pleasant enough at first glance.

It's very impressive.

However, if you add the understanding of the poems of many great poets and turn the words of the neon clothes and feather clothes song they wrote into musical notes, it will undoubtedly make the creation of the "Ni Clothes and Feather Clothes Song" to a higher level.

At the beginning, Chen Qingfeng and they Qingling Pond Pavilion did just that.

Even for this reason, they cleared the pond pavilion and went to find a bunch of online poetry authors to ask for help.

After all, poetry is the same as music, it's not knowledgeable, it's just a matter of excitement.

For example, these poets' poems of neon clothes and feather clothes -

"Huaqing Palace Four Songs II" Zhang Hu:

The sky is dark and the night is not young, and the blue cloud fairy song dances. A jade flute went into the air, and the moon was full and the Lishan Palace was leaking.

"Jade Girl Dancing Ni Dress" Li Taixuan:

The dance is dispersed with the wind, and the singing is like a chime rhyme. Thousands of times to fill in the words, the delicate eyes are like waves into the sideburns.

"Ten Songs of Ni Clothes One and Two" Wang Jian:

Leave a color in the disciple's department, listen to the wind and listen to the water to make a neon dress. The sound was not enough to be taught again until he saw the emperor in front of the bed.

The first half of the five strings of the middle orchestra is closed, and the remote teaching closes the curtain to listen. A sound fell to the sky, and the immortal sang the scriptures at night.

"Lying and Listening to the Song of the Law" Bai Juyi:

Jin Qi Yusheng has been adjusted for a long time, and the pillow at the corner of the gum is often late. After the hazy idle dream first came true, it was like a soft voice when it was broken. Le Ke reason should be true, and wine can be undoubtedly believed. Taste the remnants and listen to the rest of the song, and the oblique back silver jar is half down.

"Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes Song and Micro" Bai Juyi:

I used to be the emperor and served the emperor, and I once accompanied the banquet in Zhaoyang. There are thousands of songs and dances, and I love the neon dress dance the most. …… Shangyuan dotted the calyx green, and the queen mother waved goodbye Feiqiong. The complex sound is urgent twelve times, and the jumping beads shake the jade He sonorous. Xiangluan danced but retracted his wings, and the crane song was long at the end.

"Songyang Watching the Night and Playing Ni Clothes" Bai Juyi:

The legacy of Kaiyuan is desolate, and the autumn tune is business. Who is the lover is only Bai Yin, where is Songyang when it is played. The sound of the moon back in the mountains is full of grievances, and the rhyme of the pine wind is longer. Aunt Zijin heard that it was strange, and there were beautiful clothes in the world.

……

How much can people who don't understand these poems feel? At most, they feel that they are written in a brilliant manner, gorgeous and colorful, and the artistic conception is wonderful.

But in fact, there are many subtle things that are difficult for people who don't understand poetry to notice.

In the end, with the help of a group of poetry friends, I completed the tone of "Neon Clothes and Feather Song".

……

The original version of the song of Ni Clothes and Feather Clothes, the whole song has a total of 36 sections, and the whole song is divided into three parts: scattered order (6 sections), middle order (18 sections) and Qu Po (12 sections):

The prose sequence is a prelude, which is all free-rhythmic loose boards, played solo or in turns by chime, flute, zheng, flute and other musical instruments, without dancing or singing;

The middle sequence, also known as the beat sequence or song head, is a slow lyrical section, with several changes from slow to fast in the middle, singing and dancing according to the beat of the music;

Qu Po, also known as dancing all over, is the climax of the whole song, mainly dance, complex and urgent, sonorous music, the speed from the loose board to the slow board and then gradually accelerate to the rapid beat, at the end of the slow, dance but not singing.

The accompaniment uses chime (Tang Dynasty refers to copper bowl), zheng, flute, flute, gonghou, xiao, sheng and other gold, stone, silk and bamboo, and the music is as intoxicating as "jumping beads and shaking jade".

Looking at it this way, you can know what Su Shisan said, the complicated origin of the neon clothes and feather clothes.

However, Chen Qingfeng's version of Qingling Pond Pavilion is much simpler.

There are only guqin, xiao, pipa, sheng and vocal singing, and it is not divided into so many sections, but the three-part posture in the original song is roughly retained, so it is very convenient to play.

However, it is convenient to return to convenience, and now the reorganization of listening to the wind and watching the snow, if you want to play it immediately, you still have to arrange it.

"The guqin remains the same, the erhu plays the pipa, the flute plays the flute, the suona plays the sheng, and the vocal singing comes from Xue'er. Let's try it first and see how it works. ”

Chen Qingfeng took Niu Thirteen's words and made the simplest alternative distribution.

"What about me?" After listening to this, Niu 13 found that Chen Qingfeng had been assigned a circle, and there was no position for the drum, so he hurriedly asked: "Fengshen, I am the drum, the big drum, you can't forget me!"
