<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2, about On-line teaching vs in person</span><br /><br />
<br />
Some comments from the zoom meeting:<br />
<br />
Benjamin van der Wel : It is wonderful to see how human these arguments are. Mozart faced these exact criticisms and questions when he changed music in Europe. And so did Debussy centuries later. The dynamics of it all is wonderful to me. Thank you everyone.<br />
<br />
Benjamin van der Wel : As a brand-new person to the qin I’m really enjoying everyone’s playing and also the discussions. Thank you all. _(|)_<br />
<br />
Jenny : my violin teacher always said, when you are learning, learn to be exact, but when performing, it's a bit like jazz where harmony and feel becomes more important<br />
<br />
Esmeralda Herrero : I like the modern music and traditional qin music but it was modern music that first got me interested in the qin but I mostly play traditional scores now, so I agree with Alan in that modern music can make qin more reachable<br />
<br />
Joshua Meschke : agreed, likewise it was modern scores that introduced me to the qin, which later led me to finding older/ more traditional scores.<br />
<br />
João Oliveira : I agree, I also first got in contact with the qin due to modern music and I belive modern music is a very efficient way to spark the interest of someone who is not familiar with the instrument.<br />
<br />
Anya Badaldavood : If you are using Zoom to teach, you can also put the students in breakout rooms for practice during the instances that you are teaching a group of students. As the host, you can visit the rooms or close them to have the students join the main session.<br />
...<br />
Marilyn W. : There is also a misnomer about what are “beginner pieces.” All qin pieces are a challenge, some are much longer than others. Even the “simplest” qin piece can be played a challenge to be played beautifully or poorly.<br />
<br />
Maya Choi : The beauty in simplicity is most beautiful thing, I believe.<br />
...<br />
Jenny : thank you all, this was highly informative and thought-provoking! the music was all beautiful!<br />

<b>Qin playing</b> (<a href="https://youtu.be/ixQ9oOQVwiE" target="_blank">To watch the video of clips</a> of everyone's qin playing)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Alan Yip</b> (US) - Dao Yi 搗衣 (Pounding Cloth)<br />
* Dao Yi was composed during the Tang dynasty. In the cool autumn season, women in every family rush to make winter clothes for their loved ones, so they need to first wash and pounding the cloth. This music shows women's longing for their loved ones in the distance.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Esmeralda Herrero</b> (Ireland) - Mei Hua San Nong 梅花三弄 (Three Variations on the Plum Blossom)<br />
*From Wumen Qinpu<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Jing Wang</b> (UK) - Yue Ren Ge 越人歌 (Song of Yue Boatman)<br />
*The lyrics is from an ancient Chinese poem around 528BC. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_of_the_Yue_Boatman" target="_blank">see the lyrics of Yue Boatman</a>. The qin melody is based on a movie music by Mr. Tan Dun and Mr. Yang Qing adopt on the guqin.<br />

<div>
<b>Juni L Yeung</b> (Canada) - Zhi Zhao Fei 鴙朝飛 (Pheasant's Morning Flight)<br />
*In Wings Flapping a pheasant cooing in the morning to its mate reminds the narrator, a woman, of her lonely state. Courtesy to <a href="http://www.silkqin.com/02qnpu/07sqmp/sq42zzf.htm" target="_blank">John Thompson's site</a>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Peiyou Chang</b> (US) - Guang Ling San 廣陵散 (Short version)<br />
*Guang Ling San (Song of Guang Ling) may have existed since the 1st to 3rd centuries or from the court music of Sui dynasty in the 6th century. Peiyou studied this piece from the Ming dynasty handbook, SQMP. It is a very long piece, with about 42 sections, and more than 20 minutes long, but she played a short version which is about 9 minutes. For more information about the story behind this piece in English and Chinese, one can read from <a href="http://peiyouqin.blogspot.com/2019/01/about-guang-ling-san-song-of-guang-ling.html" target="_blank">her blog</a>.<br />
<br />
This piece has the character of 聲多韻少 more Sheng than Yun (which means more right hand plucking sound than left hand sliding and vibrato sound). Music before the Ming dynasty has this character. After the Ming, qin music has developed to be more Yun than Sheng.<br />

<b>Stephen Dydo</b> (US) - Yi Gu Ren 憶故人 (Memory of an Old Friend)<br />
*This piece was composed around late Qing dynasty and was first shown in a publication of Shanghai Jin Yu Qin Society 今虞琴刊, in 1936. It was inherited from Mr. Peng Qing-shou's family 彭慶壽祖傳秘譜. </div>

We had friends from:<br />
Budapest Hungary, Brazil, Austria, Ireland, the UK, Germany, and west coast and east coast of the US. Thank you for everyone's participation.<br />
<br />
Since more and more friends have show interests to join the on-line yaji, we plan to run the next yaji by using Zoom. We also plan to do two different kinds of yaji. For the odd months (Jan, Mar, May, July, Sep, and Nov), we will have Guqin yaji, which mainly focus on the Guqin. For the even months (Feb, April, June, Aug, Oct, and Dec) we will have music and literature yaji for multi cultures. The next yaji will be on May 24, for the Guqin then.<br />
<br />
我們有來自世界各地的朋友:<br />
布達佩斯匈牙利,巴西,奧地利,愛爾蘭,英國,德國以及美國的西海岸和東海岸。謝謝大家的參與。<br />
<br />
由於越來越多的朋友對加入在線雅集表現出濃厚的興趣,我們計劃使用Zoom運行下一個雅集。我們還計劃做兩種不同的雅集。在奇數月份(1月,3月,5月,7月,9月和11月),我們將有古琴雅集,主要關注古琴。在偶數月份(2月,4月,6月,8月,10月和12月),我們將提供針對多種文化的音樂和文學雅集。下一場雅集將在5月24日舉行,屆時將是以古琴為主。<br />

<br />
After watching this video, I feel that I can add something more to my answer to Esmi's question regarding dapu... I found that just by doing it more and more, you can find your own judgement on how you want to play the piece that you are reconstructing. You can first study pieces that have recordings from other qin masters, then start to do your own reconstruction that does not have a recording you can listen to. And just play it, experiment with it, and find a good rhythm you like, until you can play it from your heart.<br />

<br />
Prof. Burns decided to make it as a yaji (elegant gathering). He bought Chinese black tea to share with his students through the class.<br />
<br />
The calligraphy teacher Xiuwen and calligraphy classmate Andy came to listen to my presentation as well. I was very happy to see them.<br />
<br />
It was the day before Chinese full moon festival, so I decided to play "Song Of A Pleasant Night" to start my presentation.<br />

The last 25 minutes was Q & A and some of the students shared their poetry reading and music presentation such as one student used the mouth to make the sound of different percussion instruments (beatbox) like it is from an electronic keyboard, very impressive.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The questions students asked included:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Is this instrument difficult to learn?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
How old were you when you started learning this instrument?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Does it play chords?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
If the harmonic dots are a mirror image, why do you have to play same tone in different position?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
and the student asked this question also commented that she thinks it creates a choreography style for the hand movement. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Do people play modern music on the qin?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
How do you carry the table and qin if going out?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Is the sliding difficult for the fingers?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
How about the tuning?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Andy commented that he heard a blue jazz guitar player the other day, and the guitar player said that playing vibrato, when you reached the note, you wait a second then do the vibrato and Andy sees that is happening on the qin playing too. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I took two qins, one was silk string, the other one was nylon string. I performed on the silk string qin with an amplifier. At the beginning I was trying not to use the amplifier. Although it can be heard, the audience has to concentrate without making any noise. After the first piece, I decided to use an amplifier for the rest of the playing. Many thanks to my husband's help on the slides and sound settings.</div>

Bin Li played his new composition on the qin, titled: <b>America is hard to hear</b>. This is a piece that only played with harmonics (to follow the philosophy of 大音希聲) and the tuning is the tighten 5th string but lower the 3rd string about 1/4 tone, in order to create more microtonal interval. Please see his notation below.<br />

After Bin played this piece, everyone think it was a very nice piece , however no one can recognize that the melody was taken from Star Spangled Banner (the national anthem of the united state). Bin also rearranged the register and changed the rhythm. The result was quite interesting. </div>

Since ancient times, the qin has been listed as the first rank of the Chinese top ten cultivation practices. The qin became the favorite instrument of the literati class for meditation. There are three types of sound of the qin: the elegant harmonics sound as the sound from heaven; the immense and profound sound of the open string; and the exquisite and mellow sound of pressing. Both the player and listener will have to play and to listen with a calm mind and peaceful energy, so the fingers of the player will create pure sound while the heart of the listener will feel the rhythm and subtitle nuances. </span></span></div>

It is named for its regular length of the flute which is about 1.8 feet long. Shakuhachi originally came from the Tang dynasty court music of China, and was introduced from China into Japan in the 7th century. Its sound is lofty, ethereal and meditative.</span></span></div>

There was a saying : "one cannot live without this mister for a day" which pointed out that tea has become the national drink of China. While making tea and drinking tea, the tea master wants to fully concentrate to distinguish the timing of the boiling water, to smell the fragrance from the tea leaf, and to taste the pure and smooth flavor of the tea. That is why tea is also one of the top ten cultivation practices of the Chinese. </span><span bis_size="{'x':270,'y':599,'w':0,'h':11,'abs_x':537,'abs_y':732}" style="color: #222222; font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"></span></span></div>

It took 2 and a half hours and we still have a lot to chat about. We will continue the great conversation at the next one. Thank you all for your participation.
