中元节大理南村洞经谈演仪式的文化内涵与自我呈现

The Cultural Connotation and Self-Representation of the Dongjing Ritual Performance in Zhongyuan Festival at Nandong Village in Dali

洞经古乐是在大理地区流传久远的音乐形式。洞经音乐谈演仪式在当地的民间信仰习俗中普遍流行。中元节的传统民俗中,大理的洞经乐谈演者就将洞经音乐融入到了仪式的展演中。通过洞经谈演仪式的自我呈现,将艺术中的音乐元素与仪式象征有机地契合在一起。传统民间乐器的演奏使得复杂的仪式程序和晦涩难懂的仪式经典得以转化为通俗易懂的形式,从而使得中元节洞经谈演仪式呈现的文化内涵和文化意义更易融入世俗的社会群体中。

Dongjing ancient music is a musical form which has been spread in the Dali region for a long period of time. Dongjing music ritual performance is widely practiced in the folk religious rites. In the traditional folk of Zhongyuan Festival, the Dongjing music performance in Dali has already integrated Dongjing music into the ritual performance. Through the self-representation of Dongjing music, the musical elements in arts have been integrated with the ritual symbols. The performance of traditional folk instruments has made the complicated ritual processes and obscure ritual classics into an understandable form so that the cultural connotation and cultural meanings of the Dongjing music ritual performance can be easily adopted into secular social groups.
