What's the difference between ancient style and Chinese style?

Antique and Chinese style now generally refer to the song style in current popular culture. \x0d\\x0d\ The differences are as follows: \x0d\\x0d\ Many people confuse ancient music with Chinese music. First of all, it must be said that at present, it cannot be said who will contain who. "Chinese style, literally: China music style. She is China music in the new era. " But as we all know, many ancient styles use foreign music, such as cold clothes and Zi Xue. Therefore, this alone does not mean that Chinese style contains ancient style. And if the ancient style contains Chinese style, it is even more unreasonable. \x0d\ Antique songs are characterized by more and more popular chanting and copywriting, which are not available in Chinese style songs. At the same time, the lyrics of ancient songs pay more attention to rhyme, which is more difficult to understand than Chinese style. Antique songs, many lyrics are translated into ancient poems. Nowadays, most of the ancient wind circles use other people's songs to match the lyrics, resulting in countless versions of a song. And even if you rewrite the music, there will be similarities. Because many ancient songs are changed from tunes, so the so-called cover of ancient songs appeared. \x0d\ Chinese style is a kind of music unique to China, which combines three ancient styles and three new styles (ancient ci and fu, ancient culture, ancient melody, new singing, new arrangement and new concept). The lyrics have the cultural connotation of China, and the atmosphere of the song is set off by new singing methods and arrangement skills. The combination of nostalgic China background and current rhythm has produced a subtle, sad, elegant and light song style. Some ancient China allusions are added to the song as the creative background, and the classical charm is sung with modern music, with various singing methods. The music style is biased towards traditional oriental performance, and some oriental instruments have been added. The tone of the whole song is euphemistic and circular, with a traditional oriental aesthetic feeling. \x0d\ Chinese style can be divided into pure Chinese style and near Chinese style, and pure Chinese style is a song that meets the above six conditions; Close to Chinese style is a song that some conditions are not met, but it is very close to pure Chinese style. Chinese style suddenly expanded the scope of song creation. As a music creator, he can not only stay on the emotional basis of modern people, but also actively study history and China culture and dig out our national quintessence one by one, which is a very meaningful direction. \x0d\ Antique is a music form that is farther away and has an ancient taste. The earliest ancient style should start from the game with China charm and its game music. Some players felt very touched after listening to the music, so they wrote lyrics and covered songs, so they had an ancient style. \x0d\ Relatively speaking, folk musical instruments are widely used in the arrangement of ancient styles, most of which are melodious and slow, and basically belong to the elegant type, which is easy to remind people of the phrase "feather becomes immortal". \x0d\ The lyrics of ancient songs are biased towards the traditional ancient culture of China, with elegant words and a wider scope. General ancient songs are basically national pentatonic scale. \x0d\ The most prosperous time of ancient songs was the years when the fairy sword prevailed. As long as you can hear familiar music on the internet, it is basically around the fairy sword. \x0d\ The creation form of ancient songs is basically lyrics, which are created on the basis of others' arrangement (accompaniment). Later, some Asian music lyrics appeared, especially some Japanese-style songs with strong charm in China. X0d, and Chinese style is an element of China music in modern music. General musical instruments or modes in China (such as national pentatonic scale, hexatonic scale, heptatonic scale or any musical instrument with China charm, such as guzheng, erhu and pipa). ) into a more modern music style. In fact, there were many Chinese styles before Jay Chou, such as smiling proudly and smiling proudly. But what really promotes the development of Chinese style is the duo of Jay Chou and vincent fang, and several representative songs of Wang Leehom, such as "In Plum Blossoms" and "Hua Tian Cuo", which is actually a musical breakthrough, R&; B Rock people and other things are often put together with songs, which gradually forms a Chinese style, that is to say, the style of China comes from music and has a sense of the times. There are obvious differences in the lyrics. Antique lyrics are more difficult to understand than Chinese style lyrics, and Chinese style is relatively prominent, so that the audience can understand what the singer is singing only by listening, and the words are more inclined to vernacular; Antique relies on lyrics to understand what a singer is singing. \x0d\ and Chinese style, that is, Chinese style. It is an art form with its own unique charm and personality, which is based on China elements, China culture and oriental culture and adapts to the global economic development trend. As far as the lyrics are concerned, they are created by using various language symbols containing images of China elements, and the themes are mostly ancient poems or legends of China. \x0d\ From this, we can simply sum up the differences between the two lyrics: archaic words use poetry to create lyrics, while Chinese style words use China elements to create lyrics. But obviously, this conclusion is not satisfactory, which easily leads to several problems: \x0d\ First, poetry, as the two peaks of China literature, is itself a very representative symbol of China elements, so what is the difference between ancient style and Chinese style in this respect? \x0d\ Secondly, from this perspective, archaic words can be said to be written entirely on the basis of poetry, but for the Chinese style, it involves a wider range, and poetry is only one aspect of China elements. Can it be said that archaic words are included in Chinese style words? \x0d\ Thirdly, in poetry, the use of images is the most important, so in some cases, China elements in archaic words are much more than those in Chinese style words, even several times. How can you tell the difference at this time? \x0d\ Moreover, the situation we are facing today is much more complicated than this, which cannot be explained clearly in a few words. \x0d\ Take Mo Cun's lyrics as an example. The lyrics of these songs are all well-known ancient songs, such as "Pour Out the World", "Farewell to General Xi Chu with a Thousand Years of Bright Moon", "Dream Like a Dream" and "Mulan Ci". However, from the above, it is not an exaggeration to say that the lyrics of these songs are in Chinese. The lyrics of songs such as Hair as Snow, Preface to Lanting and Rain on Qingming Festival can also be said to be the reverse archaic words. When I personally write ancient words, I often don't know which one I wrote after I finish, so I always want to find out the subtle differences between them. \x0d\ The following text enters the text. I've been exposed to ancient lyrics for almost two years. Based on my personal experience in writing lyrics and some simple research on other people's lyrics, I want to discuss the difference between ancient lyrics and Chinese lyrics. \x0d\ After some simple research and summary, I think the differences between ancient Chinese-style words and Chinese-style words are mainly manifested in terms of words, rhymes, contents and themes, expressions and image choices. The following will explain them one by one. \x0d\ First, use words. In terms of words, archaic words are often more refined than Chinese words, which is similar to the refinement of words in poetry, especially the tempering of verbs, because archaic words are written on the basis of ancient poems, and verbs are much less than nouns. As far as a poem is concerned, the use of a verb can determine its eternal fame or obscurity, so there is an allusion of "deliberation" in ancient times, which is also the literary value of archaic words. As far as the poeticity of lyrics is concerned, Chinese style words are often quoted or used directly, which can be regarded as an extension of the whole word, while ancient style words are more re-created by themselves besides quoting and using, which is regarded as a creative process of poetry. In addition, archaic words, like poetry, pay attention to the feelings in the scene, supporting things and expressing aspirations, which determines that there should be "things" when writing, that is, to contain the feelings you want to express with practical things, which is slightly graceful or implicit, slightly different from the direct expression of Chinese style words. In addition, there are obvious differences between them. Compared with Chinese style words, ancient style words seldom use personal pronoun "I love you" and auxiliary word "de". The reason should be related to the words used in poetry and the language habits of modern people. Secondly, rhyme. The rhymes used in Chinese wind words are called homophones for the time being, that is, words with the same or similar vowels can be used as rhymes, such as I and In, ing, ian and ie, ue, etc. The archaic words are slightly different. They originated from poetry, but they are also greatly influenced by modern language. Besides following homophonic rhymes, you can also write in ancient rhymes, such as u and v, en and in, eng and ing. Of course, nowadays, most archaic characters are mainly homophonic rhymes, and there are relatively few archaic rhymes, but it is not without them. Dream of drinking a thousand months "Red Cliff" is mainly written about U and V. \ x0d \ Again, the content theme. Generally speaking, there is not much difference in content and theme between archaic ci and Chinese ci, both of which are retro or antique trends, but we can still get some traces after careful examination. As mentioned above, most Chinese-style words are based on the emotion of a poem, such as Shi Rencheng's Sauvignon Blanc, or on the creation of a myth, legend, historical deeds and legacy of characters, such as vincent fang's Preface to the Lanting Pavilion. Of course, there are other categories, such as things with China characteristics or national traditional culture, but generally speaking, they are recreations of existing materials. But in addition to this feature, there is a very important content, which I regard as the soul of ancient lyrics, that is, it has its own originality. It has not only relied on the existing foreign objects to create, but we can write our own experiences or stories we have conceived, and even hold a point of view. Every ancient lyric has its own memory. From this perspective, ancient lyrics are more like a kind of literary creation, which I think is the most unique. \x0d\ Speaking of it, the expressions of Chinese-style words are closer to those of modern languages, and they don't pay much attention to antithesis, so they are quite free in writing. Compared with ancient times, archaic words have no strict format requirements such as quatrains, but they still pay attention to some basic antithesis. If it's just a simple sentence break, it's easy to see that the basic formats are one-to-one, two-to-two, three-to-three, etc. For example, a sentence in the ancient style "Fishing with Exhausted Zee": The sound of swords and halberds is hoarse. Who will take you to see the fighting outside the city? After the sentence is broken, it is: the sound of swords, guns and halberds/general/the sound of silk and bamboo/hoarseness/who will take you/watch/fight outside the city; In a word of blue and white porcelain, Chinese style: koi fish, the color is white and blue, jumped to the bottom of the bowl, but I thought of you when I copied the song style. After the sentence is broken, it is:/koi fish, the color is white and blue/when I copied the song style/when I signed the contract/when I miss you. Although the overall length is the same, the nodes are different. As far as expression is concerned, Chinese-style words are relatively straightforward, with some styles of modern pop music, while ancient-style words are relatively implicit and expressed through some specific image symbols. Figuratively speaking, the expression of Chinese style words is straight, while ancient style words are curved. For example, in the ancient style Dream, there are very few sentences that directly describe the feelings of lovesickness, and most of them are hidden in various images, such as "It is difficult to find the fragrance of sinking water in the old years", "How many generations of Spring Festival couplets are now" and "The West Chamber is full of flowers and moons". The Chinese style "Flowers Full of Buildings" is more lyrical, such as "the beauty of flowers without your beauty is also a sin" and "the cold feeling of kissing dew is a aftertaste". As far as techniques are concerned, Chinese style words are generally more virtual than real, while ancient style words are the opposite, and real is more virtual. When I say virtual reality, I mean whether a scene of a word is written through inner emotional fluctuation or language behavior, or through concrete scene construction. For example, the scene of "Parting" can be written as follows: Holding hands and choking, two lines of tears are hard to break; The real thing can be written as: the long bridge is raining, and the residual willow is broken today. More clearly, this scene is composed of subjective consciousness or concrete objective images, so there is a difference between the two in performance style. The style of archaic ci is more tangible, the image construction is closer to the characters' lives, and it seems to be around them, forming an independent world, while Chinese ci is more ethereal, more subjective, with a little stream of consciousness, rapid scene change and great leap in time and space. As far as creation is concerned, most Chinese ci poems are written in the first person and the second person. When reading ci, you will feel that you are the protagonist, while ancient customs are mostly written from the perspective of an outsider or critic, which can be evaluated, participated in and appreciated. \x0d\ Finally, image selection is the most important link. Every culture has its own unique image construction, and human cognition is also based on image. Human beings act on objective things, and objective things will react on human beings, thus making the world complicated and diverse, so I won't say much here, otherwise it will be a headache. The choice of archaic images in lyrics generally follows poetry and has a specific system, that is, specific images have specific meanings, such as Liu Biao's attention, Mei Biao's nobleness and Zhu Biao's unyielding. Some even use the images in Chu Ci in The Book of Songs to create. Chinese words will be more open and free. In addition to the above system, it can use a wider range of images. And because Chinese style is formed under the premise of world communication, music has certain historical factors, so its influence is not limited to the traditional culture of China, but also can add many foreign cultural elements, such as chinked-out in Wang Leehom. Moreover, archaic words are more rigorous in the construction of images. Generally speaking, it pays more attention to the meaning behind this image, because it mainly relies on images to express emotions or explain stories, while the scope of China's Ci is slightly wider. The use of images aims to sublimate the content on this basis, which has a certain relationship with the expression of the above two. \x0d\ Although there are differences between them, there are many similarities.
