Why is there a cello, a Western instrument, in a folk band?

Cello. It is an expressive Western instrument.

Due to the uneven development of musical instruments in China's national orchestras, the cello has become an important member of China's national orchestras.

With the spread and development of traditional Chinese culture, China's national orchestral music has gradually tended from the initial simple compilation"Symphonic"。National musical instruments.

As a traditional Chinese culture.

In terms of timbre type, the proportion of alto and high ** instruments in national musical instruments is large, and low ** instruments are scarce. However, as a well-established national orchestra, the acoustic support of the bass part is indispensable, especially in large-scale folk music works, the absence of the bass part will lead to the eclipsation of the first work. Therefore, the cello, a Western instrument, occupies an important place in the national orchestral family.

Because the cello has a special timbre and is the closest to the human voice of all instruments, and there is no instrument that can replace the cello in folk music, basically all folk orchestras will have one or two cellos. When our group went abroad, the cellist also accompanied the group, so it proved that cello is indispensable even in the folk orchestra.

The cello is a kind of Western musical instrument, is one of the more common and indispensable instruments for orchestras and symphony orchestras, the cello is good at expressing beautiful and singing melodic characteristics, in the orchestra is the main bass part, beautiful timbre, wide range, can not only show the deep, resolute wind, but also can express the quiet, subtle, gentle beauty, deeply loved by people. Why is there a cello, a Western instrument, in a folk music band?

First of all, China's folk music is not suitable for ensembles in the form of large groups, because they did not have a complete system when they were invented, and the overlapping of vocal ranges is very serious, and the folk orchestras so far are only "playing in unison" rather than in ensembles. There is no low ** apparatus in folk music instruments, so in order to adapt to the orchestra performance, only a double bass cello can be used to make up for it. But now we have a low ** device modeled after a double bass, which looks a lot like a bigger Ruan.

Nowadays, there are basically no double basses in formal folk music performances.

Personally, I think that the main reason why there will be a Western musical instrument cello in the national band is that we have certain defects in the instrument, and the appeal of the cello is particularly strong, so in the national band, it is necessary to choose such a highly infectious cello to produce a more perfect sound effect in the process of the whole band.

Because the folk orchestra only existed after the founding of the People's Republic of China, most of the folk music before was in the form of solo, so it lacked a low apparatus and could only introduce cello and double bass.

At present, some orchestras have introduced national instruments such as la ruan and gehu to replace cellos and double basses, but because the instruments are not popular enough, most amateur national orchestras still use cellos and double basses.

Because the national instruments are all treble, there are few alto and bass instruments. But in the performance, there must be a bass. It is like the base of a house, and the cello plays an important role in the orchestra.

Since the birth of advanced composition technology and perfect orchestration technology in the West, it has had a great impact on the establishment of Chinese national bands. In order to connect with the world and pursue the auditory effect of keeping pace with the times, when forming a folk band, we learned from Western bands in many aspects, which can be summarized as "the same has some changes, each has its own advantages".

As we communicate with the outside world. Very extensive, some national orchestras borrowed some sunset cellos. Generally speaking, it is impossible for a Chinese orchestra to have Western instruments. He was mainly to borrow from his timbre improvement. Fruit.

None of the ones you see are folk ensembles, and if they are folk ensembles, there can't be cellos in them.

The low voice of the national musical instrument is relatively lacking, most of them are bright and recognizable instruments, and the bass part can only rely on the middle hu, the bottom hu, the big ruan, the bass sheng, etc., but the low ** instrument has a small volume, a distinctive personality, and strong independence.

The cello has a long voice, making it easier to play a smooth melody.

Actually, after all. **Regardless of borders. There is a sunset handsome in China. There is also a Chinese erhu in the Western ** building. ** It is the world, of course, not China or foreign countries. The two intersect and blend to be transmitted. The reason for going out is China come on.

Because the range of the musical instruments of folk music cannot reach the pitch to be expressed, it needs to be filled with the help of Western instruments.

Why is there a cello, a Western instrument, in a folk band? Oh, I personally think that this is a combination of Chinese and Western, and good things abroad are worth learning.

In order to match the timbre, the orchestra plays completely.

It is the product of the combination of Chinese and Western.

Because ** is the only universal language, so the musical instrument is the same.

In order to enrich the style of playing.

Nowadays, everything is a mixture of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
