励精图治 任重道远——四川音乐学院民族乐器改革的历史及展望

History and Prospect of Traditional Chinese Musical Instrument Reform in Sichuan Conservatory of Music

乐器改革是现代民族乐队发展的瓶颈,民族乐器的不完善直接导致了乐队功能的缺陷和表现力的缺失,这其中包括低音乐器的最终定型,所有乐器形制的定型,所有声部间的融洽协调等。我国的民族乐器改革始于上世纪初,四川音乐学院在这方面走在全国的前列,形成了一批乐器改革的成果。

Musical instrument reform is the bottleneck to the development of the national orchestra. Faulty tradition- al instruments would impair the expressiveness of the orchestra and limit its functions, including finalizing the design of bass musical instruments and coordinating all sections of the orchestra. Musical instruments reform in China started at the beginning of the last century, and Sichuan Conservatory of Music has taken the lead and made distin- guished achievements in this area.
