中国同宗音乐的人文阐释——同宗音乐研究系列之一

On the humanistic interpretation of music of the same clan in China one of the series of studies on music of the same clan

音乐在传播变迁中发生变化,产生出各种同出一源的变体,形成同宗音乐。这既是一种音乐现象,也是一种文化现象;是外部客观原因造成的,也是处于特定社会文化中的人的主动的文化选择的结果。对于一种音乐形态以及这种音乐形态的成因仅仅从外部考察往往不能作出终极的回答,而从它所产生的文化氛围,文化的根源来进行文化学意义上的梳理有时却更具本源性。

The changes of music in its transmission and transfer give rise to variants of the same source and form the music of the same clan. This is both a musical and cultural phenomenon caused by the external objective reasons and the voluntary cultural choice of people in a certain social culture. The ultimate answer of the formation of a musical form and its source can be located not in the external research, but in the culturally original review of the cultural atmosphere and cultural root in which the music was born.
