Abstract: Русский Второй концерт для фортепиано с оркестром до минор, соч. 18, Сергея Васильевича Рахманинова является одним из наиболее значимых произведений в истории академической музыки. Созданный на рубеже XIX и XX веков, этот шедевр представляет собой не только выдающийся образец позднеромантической литературы для фортепиано, но и глубокое отражение личной и творческой драмы самого композитора. Концерт, ознаменовавший триумфальное возвращение Рахманинова к композиторской деятельности после трёхлетнего периода депрессии и кризиса творчества, органично связан с его биографией. Эмоциональная... [Read More]

Abstract: Deutsch Der sogenannte „heroische Stil“ Beethovens bezeichnet eine stilistische und ästhetische Wende in seinem mittleren Schaffensabschnitt, die sowohl persönliche als auch zeitgeschichtliche Dimensionen aufweist. Diese Studie untersucht die komplexe Struktur dieses Stils aus mehreren Perspektiven: die biografischen und ideologischen Ursprünge, die musikalisch-formalen Merkmale wie motivische Arbeit, Kontrastästhetik und formale Ausweitung, sowie seine Rezeption und Deutung durch bedeutende Musikwissenschaftler wie Adorno, Dahlhaus, Burnham und Solomon. Ferner werden Beethovens... [Read More]

Abstract: 中文 近十年来，中日韩三国之间的教育交流与学生流动日益频繁，中国赴日韩高校就读的人数保持稳步上升趋势。语言障碍、文化差异与心理压力成为留学生群体普遍面临的问题。近年来，流行音乐被广泛应用于语言学习与跨文化教育实践中，但其教育功能尚缺乏系统性研究。基于57份问卷与多位中日韩留学生访谈，本研究探讨流行音乐在语言学习与跨文化适应（cross-cultural adaptation）中的教育价值。结果表明，多数留学生通过歌词记忆、跟唱模仿等方式提高了词汇量与语音语调；同时，音乐在缓解孤独、调节情绪、促进文化认同方面发挥积极作用。日韩文化差异导致音乐在教育功能上的表现不同：韩国语境中，流行音乐更有助于语言迁移与社交互动；日本语境下，音乐更多体现为情绪安抚与文化理解。研究认为，流行音乐在高校留学生教育中具有整合潜力，可在语言教学、心理支持与跨文化活动中形成综合教育机制。 English With the acceleration of globalization, the number of Chinese students studying in Japan and Korea has been steadily increasing. However, these students continue to face challenges in language... [Read More]

Abstract: 中文 现象学还原强调主体持有与客体世界保持距离的“目光”，将研究聚焦对“目光”结构本身的再认识。这启发音乐分析作业的逻辑拐点——音乐分析常侧重技术程式的理性分析而轻视对音响感性经验的探讨，后者是显现音乐意向体验的价值所在。本文采用现象学理论中的“意向性”概念开展一次音乐分析作业，讨论音响意向结构对音乐分析的创新价值。以波兰先锋派作曲家鲁托斯拉夫斯基的音乐观念及其作品《威尼斯游戏》的分析出发，研究表明，“有限偶然”技术构筑了基于创作-表演“游戏”的互动意义，最终，音响推动听者从疏离的“意识之线”转向沉浸的“意向之线”，并要求听众从听觉直观中获得对音乐结构的把握和音乐意义的生成。总体上，现象学为诠释作曲技法对音乐观念的贯彻力度，以及“意向性”对音响聆听经验的阐释空间提供方法论层面的革新。 English Phenomenological reduction emphasizes the “gaze” through which the subject maintains distance from the objective world, refocusing research on re-examining the structure of the “gaze” itself. This marks a pivotal shift in the logic... [Read More]

Abstract: Italiano Quest’articolo propone una riflessione sulla ricezione interculturale dell’opera Faust di Charles Gounod, con particolare attenzione al contesto giapponese e cinese. Pur essendo un capolavoro del Grand Opéra francese dell’Ottocento, Faust ha conosciuto riletture significative in Asia orientale, dove i temi universali del desiderio, del peccato e della redenzione sono stati reinterpretati alla luce di sensibilità culturali locali. Analizzando i personaggi principali, le arie emblematiche e le trasformazioni sceniche contemporanee, si evidenzia come l’opera, pur nata in un... [Read More]

Abstract: Music education is a growing market in China and many developing countries. Many citizens in these countries are spending more on recreation,  cultural services and equipment (including musical instruments).  Some people, especially children, are encouraged to learn music, because learners can satisfy their curiosity and interest, improve their quality, and achieve aesthetic concepts throughout a long period of music learning. Besides that, learning music is practical in life, it not only expresses learner’s emotions, but also helps them find part-time jobs and get admitted to... [Read More]

Abstract: This essay explores Johann Sebastian Bach’s Goldberg Variations as a profound meditation on the paradox between order and freedom. Through close listening, structural analysis, and reflection on performance practices—including Glenn Gould’s seminal recordings—the paper examines how Bach’s use of canonic form, harmonic architecture, and expressive variety invites a dynamic interplay between fixed design and interpretive openness. Rather than treating the variations as mere technical exercises or aesthetic artifacts, the study approaches them as a living dialogue between composer,... [Read More]

Abstract: 中文 模糊性是音乐本体分析中常见的现象，它通常表现为对音乐本体的认识存在着多重诠释的可能。然而，关于模糊性这一概念在音乐分析的语境中如何界定，以及这个概念是否适用于音乐分析领域，学界尚未有明确的共识。本文尝试从抽象层面与具体语境的角度，界定音乐作品中确实存在的模糊性现象；并从聆听过程的角度，解释模糊性这一概念如何为音乐作品的理解与诠释增添一定的美学意趣。于演奏而言，以聆赏过程的视角看见模糊性的存在， 也能一定程度上帮助演奏者寻找与听众感知交互的切入点。 English Ambiguity is a common phenomenon in musical ontological analysis, typically manifesting as the possibility of multiple interpretations in understanding musical events in actual music works. However, there is no clear consensus in academia regarding how to define the concept of ambiguity within the context of Music Analysis, or whether this concept... [Read More]

Abstract: 中文 这首长诗的写作旨在探索音乐、历史与个人情感之间的余音。起句化用了清代王士祯《高邮雨泊》“寂寞人间五百年”的意境，凸显历史兴衰与山河恒久的对比；同时融入李清照词中的婉约意象，如花影、灯火、纱窗、雁声与酒痕，使诗篇兼具沉郁与细腻。全诗分十节，以古琴、笛声、风雨与自然之声为线索，追溯音乐在时空中的流转：它既是王朝的回声，也是个体的心曲；既跨越古今，也连接文化。诗歌意在提醒读者，音乐与诗一样，超越人世无常，成为人与山河共享的永恒余音。 English This long poem seeks to explore the lingering echoes between music, history, and personal emotion. Its opening adapts Wang Shizhen’s line “Five hundred years of desolation in the human world” from Gao You Yu Bo, highlighting the contrast between dynastic decline and the enduring presence of rivers and mountains. At the same time, it incorporates the... [Read More]

Abstract: 中文 本詩仿作白居易《長恨歌》的敘事風格，虛構並重構了中國古代宮廷音樂的發展軌跡。詩中援引如《霓裳羽衣》《清商》等歷史樂曲，並描繪琴、琵琶等樂器的演奏意象，試圖以詩意方式再現失落的音樂場景。透過唐詩音韻、節奏與修辭結構的運用，詩作模糊了文學創作與音樂史敘述之間的界線，並引導讀者反思聲音遺產的脆弱性，以及傳統音樂在時間流轉中被記憶、遺忘與再現的方式。 English This poem, composed in the narrative style of Bai Juyi’s “Chang Hen Ge,” engages with the imagined trajectory of court music in imperial China. Through evocations of instruments such as the qin and pipa, references to historic repertoires like “Nishang Yuyi” and “Qingshang,” and a lyrical reconstruction of lost performances, the work reflects on how music mediates power, emotion, and memory. By... [Read More]
