October 2006 Taipei Trip Enrich My Eyes and Mind

這次的台北行比預期的收獲要超過太多太多
一直到回美後仍久久不能忘懷
首要託電腦網路之賜
讓我得以快速搜集資訊
並因部落格的風行
而如蜘蛛結網般認識同好
每一位我此行所認識的朋友都給了我相當大的直接與間接的鼓勵與幫助
以認識先後 他們分別是
劉繕惟先生 邱文苑伉儷 鄭德宣先生 劉行一先生 莊秀珍老師 潘(木百)世老師 以及黃懷瑾先生

因記憶會不斷湧現
我會一點一滴慢慢寫入
可用英文畢竟不是母語
寫來總不夠貼切
也許有些還是會用中文寫
我就不給自己太大壓力
也期望看倌們隨意逛逛

此行增長了我不少琴學見聞

Saw a qin book in Taipei Palace Museum

It was pitty that I did not see any painting and calligraphy in Taipei Palace Museum this time as they were closed those sections. However I saw a qin book. Jia-jing Yuan Kan Ben Wu-Gang Qinpu (嘉靖原刊本梧岡琴譜) but was not sure if it is a Guqin notation book then. I took these 2 photos and after came back to the US, I looked at Zha Fu-xi's Cun Jian Guqin Qupu Jilan 查阜西之存見古琴曲譜輯覽 and am pretty sure that it is the Qin Pu that Zha did not put it in Cun Jian Guqin Qupu Jilan, as all the materials in this qin book are in Qinpu Zhenchuan 琴譜正傳, which was published in 1547 Ming Dynasty Jia-jing year 26th to 40th. The editor of Qinpu Zhenchuan was Huang Xian 黃獻 also named Wu Gang 別號 梧岡. Qinpu Zhenchuan has 71 qin pieces including the 42 pieces from Wu-gang Qinpu.

The last two photos are Wu Gang Qinpu's index from Qinqu Jichen 琴曲集成.
