音乐是一门世界通用语言。无论音乐家还是哲学家、文学家,对音乐的理解都大致相同。在贝多芬看来,音乐是比一切智慧、一切哲学更高的启示。而叔本华则认为,“作曲家在他的理性所不懂的一种语言中启示着世界上最内在的本质,表现着最深刻的智慧。”[1]因此,音乐教育是人类精神生活中不可或缺的事物。它具备两种属性:即社会性和人性。前者是实现道德和社会目的,后者则是个体对理想的追求,即通过音乐教育塑造人的美和善。 Music is a universal language. Whether musicians or philosophers, writers, the understanding of music are roughly the same. In Beethoven’s view, music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. Schopenhauer, meanwhile, argues that “the composer, in one language that his reason does not understand, reveals the innermost essence of the world and represents the deepest wisdom.” [1] Therefore, music education is a Indispensable thing in spiritual life. It has two attributes: social and human. The former is to achieve moral and social goals, the latter is the pursuit of the ideal of the individual, that is, shaping the beauty and kindness of people through music education.
