“2001中国琵琶大赛”,在宁波开赛。专业组与业余组各有87人(除西藏、青海、澳门外,各省都有选手参加)比1980年“上海之春”全国琵琶比赛的选手人数要多得多,可谓盛况空前。深圳、新疆、台湾的琵琶教师与同行们,尽管没有自己的学生参赛,但仍不远千里前来观摹,各乐器厂以及制作琵琶的师傅们,也都纷纷前来共襄盛举。领队们、选手们、观摹者们都说:举办全国性的琵琶大赛真是盼望已久向往多年的大事。看到近200位年轻选手们的茁壮成长、琵琶艺术发展的势头极好,后继有人,让人感到无限欣慰!来宁参加决赛的选手们,对琵琶演奏都曾下过苦功,乐感都很好。但确实也存在一些问题。例如某些基本指法不符于应有的音响效果,影响乐曲的表现;又如某些难度较大的指法,或未学过,或学得不好;再如对乐曲的曲趣,未经仔细深入研究,没能把乐曲应有的内容恰当地表演出来,有些甚至歪曲了乐曲应有的意境。所以,我想谈一些我的思考。 “2001 China Pipa Competition”, start in Ningbo. There were 87 professional and amateur groups (except for Tibet, Qinghai and Maucao, all with provinces participating) than in the “Shanghai Spring” National Pipa Competition in 1980, with a much larger number of participants than ever before. Pipa teachers and their counterparts from Shenzhen, Xinjiang and Taiwan, though they did not have their own students to participate in the contest, still came to observe the exhibitions a long way and all the musical instrument factories and the teachers who made the pipa came to join in. The leaders, players and viewers all said: Holding a national Pipa competition is really a long-awaited event for many years. Seeing the thriving growth of nearly 200 young athletes, the momentum of the development of the pipa art is extremely good, and the successors have made people feel indefatigable! The players who came to Ning to participate in the finals have enjoyed great dedication to the pipa performance, it is good. But there are really some problems. For example, some of the basic fingernails do not match the sound effect that should be expected, which affects the performance of the music. Another example is that some of the more difficult fingernails have not learned or learned poorly. In-depth study, failed to put the proper content of music should be performed properly, and some even distorted the music should have the mood. So, I want to talk about some of my thoughts.
