“啸”——我国古代的一种音乐艺术,是一种较为原始的音乐。“啸”起源于湘楚巫文化,在魏晋南北朝时期和唐朝尤为盛行。到元明之后,啸开始销声匿迹。啸具有先进科学的发声方法和原理,在如今看来也是较为科学的。啸代表的精神对诗词等文化艺术也有很大的影响。到元明之后,啸开始销声匿迹,成为我国音乐艺术的一大损失,但其深刻的意义和影响值得我们深思。 “Xiao ” - an ancient Chinese art of music, is a more primitive music. “Xiao ” originated in Xiang Wu Wu culture, especially prevalent in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Tang Dynasty. After Yuan and Ming, Xiao began to disappear. Xiao sound advanced methods and principles of sound and science now seems to be more scientific. The spirit represented by Xiao also exerts a great influence on arts and culture such as poetry. After the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, Xiao started to disappear and became a great loss in the art of music in our country. However, its profound significance and influence deserve our deep consideration.
