[opm1648]

This erhu classic melody composed by poor street musician is featured in many sad scene in 1950s HongKong cantonese movies.Here Song Fei a erhu masterclass perform it so well it move me to tears everytime I hear it. I'm die hard fan of Beatles and a fan of all great musicals.Thks for great music that touch our souls and inner feeling.

This is a piece of sad music.

It reflects on our inner feeling.

No matter what nationalities we belong, the colour of our blood is still red

We all feel the same pain and sorrow when our loved ones are hurt.

So why not we all live in peace and avoid such sorrow, if not for ourselves at least for our children's sake

[FlingNdirt]

What the heck do Beatles have to do with this? And how can one nations music outperform esthetically I am not taking away any of china's rich music culture. I am only stating that before western colonialism Chinese melody lines were played more or less free form and would rarely have harmonic structures added to the melody. The instruments would play in parallel octaves in an ensemble rather than creating chord structures. Ask any music historian and they will back me up on this.

[FlingNdirt]

@RonaldR2007

Read Johanna Namminga 'The hybridization of Western and Chinese music' if you really want to understand where music like this is coming from.

And a little civility goes a long way.... even on the internet.

[Erhulover999]

炉火纯青，百听不厌。

[StormyP101]

I don't understand...how is this music English?

[FakeUserNameHere]

This style of traditional Chinese music predates Ralph Vaughn Williams by hundreds of years and this particular composer lived at the same time as RVW.

[ColinMcGraw]

This is one of my favorite songs on the earth.

[FlingNdirt]

Anyone notice that this music is more a copy of Ralph Vaughan Williams style?

This music is English and western as it gets. Take nothing away from the performance it's great.. But it is western music never the less.

[RonaldR2007]

@FlingNdirt Please keep the beatles, the rolling stones and all the musical gas the uk has produced and insert it deep where it belongs i.e. your asshole and leave alone the great chinese composer 华彦钧, Huà Yànjūn. Btw I'm not asian, I'm not talking out of national pride. The very few I've discovered of Chinese traditional music outperforms esthetically most western music, even italian and german!

I played the violing all my life and I've loved and admired the italians but this is far superior

[AAMLfan]

@FlingNdirt Err...no.

I think you might need to get away from Western music for a while and learn to appreciate and respect Eastern music for what they are...and no, the West does not influence everything despite what you might think.

[FlingNdirt]

@AAMLfan

I do not think the west influences everything. I never said that nor do i think it. Yànjūn Huà had definitely listened to many European phonographs of the old masters. And he lived in a time of great western influence on china (belive it or not) that is fact. There were some nationalist composers that felt strongly that other nations should never `defile the mother land` but they were not the majority and Yànjūn Huà was not one of them for sure.

[cwmak70]

@FlingNdirt This music dates back to the Song Dynasty, Tang Dynasty... I don't think King Arthur even exist during that time.

the composer of this piece was dead in 1950 he was a blind man and suffered a lot. even though he couldn't see the world, he feel the world by heart. it's touching, always.

[chak9141]

當此國家盛世，這曲仍然引起人們共鳴。因為國雖富，民仍窮；國雖­強，但民怨仍深。趙連海，劉曉波等眾人的沉冤，仍未得雪。如果毛­澤東和鄧小平仍在，且是二十多歲，他們會否「重上井崗山」？

[Doleafol]

To listen to this is to feel free. It is potentially subversive. What is the party line on this music?

[qqswqq]

I like it very much.....And I love China!!

[personcommon1]

This masterpiece of traditional China music is mesmerising. The main anchor artist playing the instrument is graceful in each and every moment. Heart goes out of its way. Gigantic melody which shows the capability of people of China. Best wishes.

[sayar119]

beautiful!

[MoLahBel]

Moving and yet grandiose! Expansive music, to say the least! If it starts in a plaintive tone, it surely goes quickly into an assertive but still speculative mode, and becomes uplifting! Such a well orchestrated composition! Both the ErHu and the dizi, not to forget the other artists, are just great! Thanks for posting!

[magdalene512]

who is the lady playing 扬琴 with long hair?

[fluorescence]

@magdalene512 Her name is Chen Xiang Yang. 谌向阳. :)

[magdalene512]

原来她就是谌向阳啊，如雷贯耳，没想到年轻的时候还是一美女

[hushanyt]

@fluorescence no, it's not, she is Song Fei(宋飞), very famous ErHu player.

Salute to all the instrumentalists of the great China Central Chinese Orchestra 中国中央民族乐团. Particularly to 宋飞 and the flutist.

[evkw08]

@chantiatwhy

does she have a website?

[RusselMuttly]

Does anyone know what is on her erhu? Its like by her fine tuners and is long and metal? Never seen it before

[jackx9992002]

聽了很多版本的二泉映月 還是宋飛老師的版本好聽 果然是一代宗師...

[chantiatwhy]

太感动了! 凄凉。

Great music - composed by a blind street-musician.

Tribute to the great China Central Chinese Orchestra.

[keksiew]

二泉映月是瞎子阿炳的名作。阿炳在音乐上的成就，远远超越了家传­师承的藩篱，博采众长，广纳群技，把对痛苦生活的感受，全部通过­音乐反映出来。他的音乐作品，渗透着传统音乐的精髓，透露出一种­来自人民底层的健康而深沉的气息，情真意切，扣人心弦，充满着强­烈的艺术感染力。



[swieyue]

This is the best orchestra performance of this piece ever.

[karmlan123]

The original composer ArBin (Hua Yan Jun) played this tune, which recorded in 1950. Copy and Paste this word 阿炳絕響二泉映月 in Youtube.

Enjoy!

[karmlan123]

I became touched and tears after knowing this song was composed by a blind street-musician (Hua Yan Jun) from Wuxi, China.

Died at 57 (1950), his songs were then revealed. Fortunately he recorded few of it and you can search in Youtube, the original tune played by him in 1950, months before he passed away. (of course, not expecting high recording quality during those days.)

[dioking6422]

like it very much.

[canon888888]

My tears flow slightly.... very touching song from the Chinese.

[sweeyue]

She manages to draw out the mournful tone of this piece with finesse and an astounding sense of tone and speed.

[david1234lee]

Well, folks, Sung, indeed, is the captain of modern day Chinese erho. Behold at her magnificent manners and confidence!

我认为，华彦钧虽然不像西方的贝多芬，柴可夫斯基那样，名闻天下­。但是，他的音乐艺术修养，和他们不相上下。他是东方人的自豪。

王厚炽

[longshinewoole]

It was reported that the composer was born blind.  He learned various instruments, and played on the streets to collect donation for living.

[ThePleasedontstopthe]

It's not "reported", it's a known fact

[sjf7338]

he was not born blind. he became blind later due to eye disease.

[FreebirdPRC]

The composer was not born blind. And that added even more tragity to his bitter life.

[Joandthefish]

One of the most beautiful songs.

[zeeyeezone]

這樣偉大的文化, 能不自豪嗎?

[foxming]

la so la mi do rue... 初中时候还要背这曲子呐。

[fisher2150]

if you want to truly enjoy the spirit of this song, it's better to play in solo without the noise from the band, though the band appears to enhance the emotion, but in fact they just degrade. the instrument is called "erhu" which mimics human's voice (to be more exact, human's weep)

[amogharaja]

If play this in solo ,it is such a sad song that it will made you feel sad too.

[fisher2150]

yes, the song is meant to be sad. it's not a hilarious song

[sysonweb]

I did listen a solo version. I don't agree with you, and I still think this orchestra version is better

[xoxomileycyrusxoxo90]

If music is the food of love, play on.

[sysonweb]

Sad music can be so beautiful

[lawrence333222888]

Very emotinal.

[22crazychick221]

C'est sublime. Quelle sensibilité de la soliste, qui plus est j'adore cet instrument !

J'espère que cet orchestre passe à Paris de temps à autre.

@McRoberts1000　多謝多謝！　私は、中国の文化的美貌の凄さを識る者です。日本の電視台は全て­美国の価値観と思想哲学に酔って変容変形して、真実を写し人間の­美しさを伝えるには､あまりにも換金主義的で、このようなうつく­しいものでさえ、政治的なイデオロギーで排除するようです。　日中友好以前の、文革期から、ラジオ短波放送で､北京放送の日本­語放送を聞いて､日本人の多数が中国をよく識りもしないで批判ば­かりする中、本物の中国を知るために、あらゆる事を学ばせていた­だきました。75年に日中友好成立時、本当にうれしかった本当の­中国を知ることが出来ると喜び合いました。あれから39年過ぎ去­った…。人は忘れ易いものです。だから過ちを繰り返す。あの日の­に中友好を今も忘れませんよ。いつまでも、どこでも、だれとでも­。隣国外交の世界的奇跡に胸を張って生きたいからです。日中平和­世界平和は､政府がするのではなく双方の人民一人一人がすること­です。偉大な庶民がすることです。謝謝！

@pinpono843 日本の音楽も綺麗ですよ。。。

[pinpono843]

@McRoberts1000　人間の美しさは難解ではなく、人の貴さは幼い子供にもよく理解で­きるものです。互いが親密になるのに､いかほどの値がいるや？互­いが美しくあるにはどれほどの労苦がいるのであろうか？　否々、そんなに難しくはないと思う。ただ、こうして、知らない国­の美貌を知るにはその国の芸術文化にふれ、こうして心静に聞けば­良いのです。全ての難問の答えを出す必用はないのです。その答え­の結果を急ぐ必用もありません。　人の成長似合わせるように、ゆっくりと答えを出せばいいのです。­自分が豊かになりたいのなら急ぐ必用がどこにあるだろうか？今の­新進走進時代の中国より、大唐中国のように、美貌の都となって欲­しい。

[jinjiahui]

@McRoberts1000 擦，this is china music ...my english is poor .my is erhu teach... 二泉映月isn't japan music.

[jytt1234]

@McRoberts1000

Get your fact straight, please. This is Chinese music.

[angher2010]

@pinpono843 although I cannot understand every words in Japanese of you saying, I cannot guess from the Chinese characters in your Japanese(quite convinient, right? haha.although sometimes misleading, e.g 大丈夫) I agree with your idea. I am a Chinese. To be honesty, both the Chinese and Japanese cultures have many high points.(I hope my Chinese fellows who r rational, no matter u r anti-Japan or not, at least admit this). I personally wish peace between the two countries in east asia.

[pinpono843]

@angher2010

ありがとうございます中国の友へ　あなたのコメント、良く理解できました。　友好はこうして始まる。

To the Chinese friend that thank you　Your comment was good and was able to understand.　The friendship begins in this way.

[angher2010]

@pinpono843 It is nice to have people like you in Japan, which is the base of good relationship between Japan and China. Although I am not fully optimistic with the complete elimination of possibility of war between Japan and China, I firmly agree we should take every chance, such as cultural communication, to enhance the friendship between Japanese and Chinese. This is the best way to prevent war which is extremly harmful to both countries. Better to have neighbours to be friends than enimies.

[angher2010]

@pinpono843 just heart of the earth quake in Japan causing Tsunami. wish everything is fine with your family if you are in the area affected.

[angher2010]

@pinpono843 go on....I guess most ordinary Japanese people share the same wish as mine. But the bitter history and more importantly the current situation of Japan's territory claim on Fishing Island and continuing worship 靖国神社 do cause trouble and reduced the trust. Still I wish pease, because war is the really anti-humanility and caused great pain to both sides. No one actually wins except Satan. But we have to be cautious the possibility of war between us. But wish true peace realized one day

[pinpono843]

@dazhonghuaguomin　コメント有り難う。私は常々、悪いことを１００言うなら、その反­面の善いことも１００上げるべきなのです。他民族集合国家と日本­のような単一民族の考え方が必ずしも一致する事は難しいと思いま­す。そんな回りくどいことより、素直に向き合えるのは両国の文化­や国の芸術や互いの、人民の生活文化の上で優れた物をもっともっ­と知るべきなのです。知らないから怖がるし、知らないから傷つけ­合う。互いが知ることで理解が生まれそして互いが信頼し会うこと­で導き出した物が両国の強い絆となるのであれば、私には、互いの­欠点は必ず乗り越えられると思います。　日本の商業ＴＶやマスメディアの極端な報道があまりにも一方的で­、互いの利益を損なう物です。冷戦時代のイデオロギーがすべてを­説明できるような考え方はもう役に立たなくなっています。私は日­中の平和に興味があって、世界平和は国家がするのでもありません­し神様がすることでもないと思います。　世界平和は人民がそして庶民がすることです。無名の私がしなけれ­ばいけないことと信じて居ます。　日中友好は世界の美談であり奇跡なのです。正しいことです。

MUSICA DEL CIELO, FELICIDADES

[dilbertfungoing]

that one guy sitting just behind her looked so much like jackie chan--- I kept expecting him to get up and karate chop somebody.

[david1234lee]

A nation will rise whose musc shows such emotional depth and range.

[Fanciespanties]

u think so?

[Redbaron011]

A nation? Every one of us has such emotional range an depth. Every single one of us understands the language of music.

[david1234lee]

@Redbaron011

Well, thanks! Music that deals with empathy with past or present occurrences is part of our cultural continuity and the underlying joy, pains or frustrations are not an individual invention though the expressions belong to the artists' creative ingenuity. The sentiments related to the music are prevalent in China!

[percysong]

每次听此曲总是泪盈于眶

[LouisaLMak]

May I ask where was this performance? I looks like the golden hall in Vienna. If it is, it would be good news. Sharing music with the rest of the world is a definite step forward.

[david1234lee]

This is the music hall at Beijing, China. Looks very nice. I want to see it next month.

[Nanyanguo]

david1234lee , looking at the european audience and indications from the other postings of the same concert by the orchestra, are u sure this concert was at Beijing and not the Vienna golden hall?

[david1234lee]

I am 100% sure! This place host lots of other events including Chinese opera.

[darkmillenium0000]

i believe it is the golden hall

[Damriel]

Isn't she considered one of China's living National treasures?

[david1234lee]

Yes, she is! She and Yu hung-mei are the two best!

[khmerkic]

Breathtakingly beautiful music. Great talent. Thanks for sharing. Hope to see many more of this genre. Really enjoyable.

[david1234lee]

Willaim, I like Yu Hung mei very much. But Sung Fe is the captain of the whole team of modern-day Chinese erho players. Not only is she totally absorbed in and by her art, she possesses the nonverbal air of a leader. She is distant but not aloof; commanding but inclusive; nonchalant and yet full of passion! I worship her and I listen to her daily!!!

Are you the same guy at " I love China"?

We were comarades there! Haha! I know Dima from Taichi class!

[david1234lee]

Yes! This whole thing, music included, shows a Chinese exuberance preceding the coming Age of China!

[david1234lee]

I enjoy Yu Hung Mei very much---, to the extent of worshiping her. Howsoever, Sung Fe is the best of them all. She is currently the dirctor of Chinese Folk music academy! She has the airs, the talent and the composoure!
