聂耳应该是什么家?——与王西麟先生商榷

What Kind of Master Nie Er should to be?

聂耳是我国近现代音乐史上非常重要的一位音乐家,但是,对于其作曲家这个具体称谓,却一直存在着较大的争议,王西麟先生就多次撰文表示聂耳不是作曲家。此言论有失公允,笔者通过深入剖析王先生的言论,认为聂耳少有器乐曲创作,以及非学院派出身等都不能成为将其排除在作曲家群体之外的理由。

Nie Er was a very important musician in Chinese modem history of music, however, there has been disputed about his title of composer, and Mr. Wang Xilin wrote numbers of articles to say that Nie Er not being a composer. The writer thought this statement has been unfair, and through in-depth analysis of Wangg saying, the author held that it could not be a reason to exclude Nie Er from the composer groups even him rare created instrumental music, and have not studied in music institute.
