从“莫高窟壁画”到《丝路花雨》——谈敦煌音乐文化传承与发展的新思路

Rain of Flowers on the Silk Road: A New Thinking of Inheriting and Developing Dunhuang Music Culture

从"莫高窟"的壁画形象中人们发现,"敦煌音乐"之所以能够在古时流传上千年,与其自身不断发展及融合有着密不可分的联系;舞剧《丝路花雨》的成功亦是基于传承与发展之上的。在多元文化发展的当今社会,作为我国音乐文化的瑰宝,如何将"敦煌音乐"文化弘扬及发展,是值得思考与探讨的课题。通过对莫高窟壁画中伎乐形象的描述,以及以《丝路花雨》为代表的现代"敦煌艺术"文化所编创的舞台作品的分析,剖析古代与现代"敦煌音乐"文化的特点,并提出将来"敦煌音乐"文化发展的思路,以期引发关于"敦煌音乐"文化乃至"敦煌艺术"文化传承与发展等问题的思考。

It can be seen from the images of Mogao Grottoes frescoes that the reasons why Dunhuang Music could be spread for thousands of years in ancient times lie in its continuous self-development and integra- tion. The success of the dance drama Rain of Flowers on the Silk Road is also based on the inheritance and development. How to promote and develop the treasure of Chinese music culture, Dunhuang Music culture, is a subject worthy of thinking and discussing in the multicultural world. By describing the Kabuki images in Mogao Grottoes frescoes and analyzing the stage works created by modem Dunhuang Art represented by Rain of Flowers on the Silk Road, this paper explores the characteristics of the ancient and modem Dun- huang Music culture. In addition, it makes some suggestions for the future development of Dunhuang music, which can arouse more reflections on the inheritance and development of Dunhuang Music culture and even Dunhuang Art.
