谈民族音乐学理论对中国传统音乐研究的影响

On the Influence of Ethnomusicology Theory on the Study of Chinese Traditional Music

由于民族音乐学在研究上的是以整个民族学的角度来进行的,其研究的对象就不仅仅包括某一个体民族的音乐类型,而是将人类中所有民族中目前所存在的各种民族音乐内容都进行丰富的涵盖,由于传统音乐与民族音乐之间存在这千丝万缕的关系,民族音乐学理论对传统音乐在发展和研究上产生了多方面的影响。本文首先对民族音乐学理论进行概述,并从对文化现象的形成、对民间考察的重视、音乐文化的多元化和其研究成果这几个方面的内容,简单论述民族音乐学理论对我国传统音乐研究的影响。

Rather than music genres of a specific ethnic group,ethnomusicology focuses on the study of music from the angle of ethnology;that is,it covers the full scope of various kinds of folk music from all ethnic groups in the world.Because of the close connection between traditional music and folk music,the theory of ethnomusicology has exerted an influence on the development and study of traditional music in many ways.This paper first gives an outline of ethnomusicology,then expounds on the influence of ethnomusicology on the study of traditional music in China from the following aspects： the development of cultural phenomenon,the emphasis on the investigation of folk customs,and the diversification of music culture and related research findings.
