口传心授 色泽在唱——中国传统吟诵与传统歌唱的共通性简论

Teaching Orally and by Heart,Singing with Retouches——a brief discussion on the commonality between traditional Chinese chanting and traditional singing

中国传统吟诵与传统歌唱都建基于汉语音韵体系,与汉字平仄声调的联系都十分紧密,二者于师承方式、记谱法层面表现出明确的共通性。“口传心授”为传统歌唱及吟诵艺术的历史传承奠定了基础,构建了流派师承的历史脉络;骨干音式记谱法为二者师承关系的衍生发展提供保障,看似缺乏精确度的记谱方式为其多样化发展增添动力。研究二者的共通性有助于提升对传统艺术本体的认知和理解,为如何在现当代背景下推广传统吟诵和歌唱艺术提供启示。

Traditional Chinese chanting and traditional singing are both based on the Chinese phonological system,and are closely related to the level and oblique tones of the Chinese characters,showing a clear commonality between them in terms of the way they are taught and the way they are notated.Teaching orally and by heart lays the foundation for the historical inheritance of traditional singing and chanting art,and builds the historical context of the inheritance of genre teachers.The backbone phonetic notation provides a guarantee for the derivative development of the mentoring relationship between the two,and the seeming lack of precision in the notation adds impetus to its diversification.Studying the commonality of the two can help to enhance the cognition and understanding of traditional art,and provide inspiration for how to promote traditional chanting and singing art in modern and contemporary contexts.
