Blood is a wonderful relationship,
Maybe you think the eight rods can't hit the two people,
Actually relatives!
For example, TVB movie star "Brother Huanxi" Xu Shaoxiong
To call Mr. Lu Xun "uncle"
Feng Guozhang, a prominent figure in the Republic of China period
It was the great-grandfather of the comedian Feng Gong
In fact, these cross-border mashups of relatives
It is also a beautiful landscape in the world of instrumental music
As I will introduce to you today, these two:
Oriental folk music big man - pipa
The Prince of Western Instruments – The Guitar
Lute and guitar
Both are composed of a resonance box plus a long handle
The strings are fixed between the long handle and the resonance box
They belong to the same instrumental family that straddles Eurasia
There is a common ancestor:"
Because it is too old
"In the long river of history
Only a vague face was left
We can see the instrument in the hand of the man in red from the picture below
Get a glimpse of what it really is
"It's the patriarchal instrument of this family."
At that time, it was still a dancing teenager
I can't hold back the curious soul
Want to go out and see how big the world is
So he left East Asia alone
Southern and Northern Dynasties period
"Crossed the Silk Road to China."
Go with the flow
I took a very Chinese name
"Curved-necked lute"
Curved-necked pipa in early China
It needs to be held horizontally by the musician and played with a plucked bullet
It looks like a guitar
It has been improved by the inheritance of generations of musicians
The lute gradually changed from a horizontal hug to a vertical hug
The playing method was also changed from a paddle to a finger flick
As for the guitar, its evolutionary history is more complicated
Wind and fire broke into the world" "Came to Arabia
Be attracted by the local customs and customs, and fully integrate
Transformed into "Udqin"
As a descendant of ""
Naturally, Udchen naturally inherited the adventurous spirit of his ancestors
The newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and it comes to Europe
Gradually evolved into a rut
The lute is shaped like an almond
It is also necessary to hold the bounce sideways
Very contentious about it
Later, it became an important instrument of modern folk music in Europe
Why hasn't the guitar played for half a day?
Don't worry, time flashes back to modern times
Archaeologists near the stone carvings in Kendala, India
Discover the rutine from the 1st to the 2nd century BC
One of them is very similar to a guitar
Speculate: the guitar is another branch of the rut
Except for the lute and guitar
There are also many musical instruments that have kinships that are thicker than water
For example, piano and dulcimer
Chao'erqin and horsehead qin
Fences and harps
……
A great charm of music
It's about its powerful inclusiveness
Although a huge family of musical instruments
Often we are often silly and unclear
However, the collision of different instruments can trigger aesthetic resonance
