琵琶是我国具有悠久历史的传统民族乐器,解放后,在毛主席“古为今用”“洋为中用”“推陈出新”的方针指导下,这一古老乐器,从品位、弦质、制作方法、材料等方面得到了重大的改进,在整理加工传统曲目、创作现代曲目和改编外国优秀作品等方面,取得了可喜的成绩。 Pipa is a traditional national musical instrument with a long history in our country. After the liberation, under the guidance of Chairman Mao’s principle of “using this as ancient as today”, “using foreign as a foreign language” and “putting forth new ideas”, this ancient musical instrument is based on taste, strings, methods of production, materials, etc. It has made significant improvements in the area and has made gratifying achievements in arranging and processing traditional tracks, creating modern tracks and adapting outstanding foreign works.
