Wang Lu and Zhu Ying, two pipa teachers in the early Republican Era, taught respectively in the Music Research Association of Peking University and the National Conservatory of Music founded by Cai Yuan-Pei and Xiao You-Mei. Their presence in the academy marks the beginning of formal education of pipa music. Both musicians composed pipa music and wrote treatises on the history and theory of Chinese music. Based upon the study on the content of their teaching, performance and original compositions, this paper analyzes the title, structure, melody, playing technique and investigates the relationships between their works and traditional musical scores, the co-relations between their compositions and western musical thoughts as well as the changes in the musical notation of pipa music. Based upon the above, the author examines the tradition they inherited and the transformation they introduced to pipa music. |
