1. The reason for choosing this topic

We chose Meng Jiangnv as the report of artistic treatment because it is an example of modern vocal music works with obvious emotional changes. It has complex emotions and a wide range of vocal music, and the second creation of vocal music requires solid basic skills.

Here, we thank the songwriter Liu Lin and the composer Zhixin Wang. This beautiful song "Meng Jiangnv", known as one of the four great love legends in the Middle Ages, was compiled into a vocal work, which spread all over the world and made China's love songs bloom in spring. We will take the second creation of vocal music seriously, express the emotions contained in the songs more deeply and perfectly, and make the four ancient love legends in China spread more deeply and for a longer time.

2. Literature review

As one of the four great love legends in ancient China (the other three are Cowherd and Weaver Girl, Butterfly Lovers and Legend of White Snake), the story of Meng Jiangnv has been widely circulated for thousands of years. The legend of Meng Jiangnv is widely circulated among the people in the form of oral inheritance. The earliest legend can be traced back to Zuo Zhuan.

With the spread of Meng Jiangnu's story, the upsurge of temple building has arisen everywhere.

Now it is known that Meng Jiangnu's earliest temple was built in the Northern Song Dynasty. Auspicious symbols and Jia of the Northern Song Dynasty were found in Xu Shui, Hebei Province and Tongchuan, Shaanxi Province. During the years, the stone tablet of Jiangnu Temple was rebuilt. Many local chronicles describe Meng Jiangnv as a native, and Linzi, Tongguan (Tongchuan), An Su (Xu Shui), Shanhaiguan and Tongguan all have the tombs of Meng Jiangnv. When Shanghai was building a road in the late Qing Dynasty, a sarcophagus was dug at the foot of the old north gate, with a stone statue lying in the middle and the word "Wan Qiliang" on the chest, which was buried when Shanghai was building a city during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty.

According to Meng Jiangxian's treasure scroll, the first emperor built the Great Wall, and Taibaixing sang nursery rhymes: "There are thousands of happiness in Gusu, and one person can overcome many deaths. After the Great Wall is sealed, it will be king, and the Great Wall of Wan Li will last forever. " The story of Meng Jiangnv crying over the Great Wall for her husband was triggered by her desire to escape from the beam. Qin Huang allowed Jiang Meng to do three things: build a bridge, build a grave, and cry for sacrifice. Jiang Meng condemned the tyrant and drowned. In this story, Meng Jiangnv became a Suzhou native.

It can be seen that the sense of history contained in the song "Meng Jiangnv" is a breakthrough in the common love-hate relationship-she loved, hated, resented and cried for thousands of years, and it continued with the spread of the song. All the love and hate expressed in Meng Jiangnv are not only the love and yearning of two people, but also the hatred of feudal tyranny and the desire and pursuit of a free and happy life. After more than two thousand years of cyclic evolution, it has formed today's face. Therefore, while singing, we should not only miss my husband, follow him and mourn my fate. More through this story, from resentment of "husband" abandoning himself to resentment of tyranny at that time, it extended to the whole feudal system.

Secondly, its background.

The story of Meng Jiangnv is a household name. Literature review.

The structure of this song can be divided into three parts with its tone sandhi. Plus the description of time in the lyrics, it is divided into four parts: spring, summer, autumn and winter. Its structure, as well as the feelings it expresses, are inseparable from performance. Here, let's talk about it together.

At the beginning of the G key, it describes the joy of the Spring Festival, and directly uses the lyrics "Spring Festival, Joy and Ying Ying, Unity" to describe the joy of other people's homes, while Meng Jiangnv is "My husband is going to build the Great Wall". Although it describes the Spring Festival, the melody has laid a euphemistic and sad feeling, just like a newly married woman in the boudoir, watching her neighbors celebrate, lamenting her own sadness, and contrasting and contrasting Meng Jiangnv's loneliness.

The whole part expresses a sad psychology. I don't know whether to blame my husband, the Spring Festival, the neighbors or the tyrant.

The tone sandhi of F directly expresses Meng Jiangnv's yearning for her husband in summer. The love story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in China's ancient mythology profoundly expressed Meng Jiangnv's sad psychology. On July 7th in summer, Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet at the Magpie Bridge. "That's the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl." "When can I see Qi Liang again?" There is also a clear contrast here. Cowherd and Weaver Girl reunited. Why can't we meet again?

The whole article expresses the word "acacia", especially the word "meet". I want to stop moaning, just like continuous thoughts, like running water.

In a blink of an eye, September is golden autumn. The Double Ninth Festival was originally a time for family reunion. We enjoyed the scenery, climbed high and looked at chrysanthemums, planted dogwood everywhere, ate double ninth cake and drank chrysanthemum wine. Nowadays, the autumn wind is gradually rising, and "chrysanthemum is boiling and wine is empty and acacia is missing". Do you remember that your husband doesn't have enough clothes? Meng Jiangnv began to "make clothes for the people she loves". "The thread is acacia, the needle is affection, and the needle and thread are sewed densely." Meng Jiangnv's lovesickness is also woven in this horizontal direction. Finally, the clothes were finished, but my husband still didn't come back. Meng Jiangnv wears new clothes and holds her heart, and decides to find her husband. Whether you are worried about your husband or miss him, this complex emotion is the first step in walking.

The whole part expresses the desolation of Meng Jiangnv. After waiting for more than half a year, my husband hasn't come back yet, and finally I can't help but decide to "accompany you"-these three words have played a connecting role in the whole song. Because I miss the limit, I decided to find it myself. I saw the bones because I went to find them myself. That kind of hope to despair foreshadows a strong emotion for the last cry. So these three words not only pave the way for the first three parts, but also pave the way for the back. Stay with you. What will you do if you are not here?

The end of B-flat tone-the beginning of Allegro symbolizes Meng Jiangnu's difficulty and firmness in finding a husband. Allegro is as strong as a snowstorm, but the melody is winding and the high notes are ups and downs, just like Meng Jiangnv climbing over mountains and breaking through one pass after another. "From autumn to winter" is only for "sending cold clothes thousands of miles away". A woman goes through a lot of hardships and finally comes to her husband's place, but she can't see him. "I wonder where my husband is, where is he?" Do you want to ask your husband or yourself? "The sound of blood and tears is screaming, and the sky is dark." All thoughts and actions have become nothingness. She doesn't know where my husband is. I cried again and again, cried again and again, and finally cried down the Great Wall, only to see that my husband who misses him every day and is waiting to go home has already turned into a pile of bones.

Accompany you, accompany you, all turned into bones, how can I accompany you? Only crying again and again, crying again and again, accusing the tyrant of tyranny, accusing cheat people of feudal society, accusing her of full of lovesickness and resentment. Crying down the Great Wall and seeing the bones, the last sentence she cried out was resentment in her heart. "Cry down the Great Wall, eight hundred miles, I saw bones diffuse castle peak. Man Qingshan! "

The whole song is the climax of the whole song, and most of them use crying to express Meng Jiangnv's psychology.

Throughout the whole song, the melody of the whole song is euphemistic and sad, and the emotion deepens step by step and becomes stronger and stronger. Both melody and rhythm are gradually approaching the point of nervous breakdown. Singers must put their feelings into it, whether as narrators or parties, and the mood of crying for territory must be in place.

Because my knowledge of song art processing is not high enough, my knowledge of music is not thorough enough, and I am still young, so I can only write here, hoping to help you. All the materials indicate the source, and the rest are written by myself. Take a look and hand it in.
