周沛然乐事初考

Preliminary research on Zhou Peiran and his musical achievements

周沛然是新中国音乐教育的先行者,也是中国合唱艺术理论的奠基人之一。早在上世纪50年代,他就编辑出版过多册音乐书籍并大量印刷、传播甚广。他的合唱指挥教材,在近半个世纪的时间里不断再版,至今仍有一定影响力。本文通过对历史文献的挖掘与梳理,大致还原出了这位音乐家早期的人生经历与从艺发展轨迹,并尝试在梳理研究个案的同时,也对中国革命文艺、中国合唱艺术理论和中国大众音乐教育的个案梳理,做出实证研究的理论探索。

Zhou Peiran is the forerunner of music education in New China and one of the founders of Chinese choral art theory.As early as the 1950s,he edited and published many music books,which were widely printed and distributed.The choral conductor textbooks written by him have been reprinted for nearly half a century and still have a certain influence.In this dissertation,through the excavation and combination of historical documents,it roughly restores the musician's early life experience and the track of his artistic development.While trying to sort out the case study,the author also makes a theoretical exploration of empirical research on Chinese revolutionary literature and art,Chinese choral art theory and Chinese popular music education.
