在音乐会上,我们经常能够看到:在一个金属架子摆列着若干大小、薄厚不同的木块,由一人站在琴后,手执两个形如汤匙的小木槌敲击,并发出时而宏亮、清脆,时而明丽、隽美的那件乐器,就是木琴。只不过,我们看到的这种木琴是已经经过数百年的演变和改进之后的木琴。远古时期的木琴可不是这个样子,也不是这样演奏的。 最早产生于亚洲、非洲和南美洲的、远古时代的那种简陋木琴,只有一些发音不同的音乐。演奏时,奏者坐在地上,把木条横置于伸直的双腿上,或于两腿间的空地上挖一作共鸣之用的深坑,敲击发音,这就是被称之为“腿上木琴”的原始木琴。后经改进,将木条摆在干草上,后来只置于半园形的框架上,奏者将其吊挂在脖颈上,垂至腰际敲打,这就是被称之为“环形不琴”的木琴。15世纪,木琴传入 At the concert, we often see: in a metal shelf with a number of different sizes of wood, standing by one person after the piano, the hands of the two shaped like a spoon mallet percussion and issued a sometimes macro Bright, crisp, sometimes beautiful, beautiful instrument that instrument is the xylophone.
