? Between the Mountains and the Waters" is a zither piece written by the young composer Su Yi and played by the famous guqin player Yang Qing, the piece is very beautiful and touching. My friend highly recommended it, and I just listened to it once and completely fell in love with it, and there was a kind of "at first sight, I fell in love with it, and suspected that it was a jade person" feeling that rose up in my heart.
So, while doing housework and listening to this song, I finished the work without realizing it. The first thing you need to do is to listen to the song while you're out walking, and you'll be able to enjoy it and relax, and then you'll be able to listen to it while you're on your way to work. When I listen to it, I always have unlimited imagination and feelings coming to my mind. Imagine what? Will recall a lot of past events, such as the mountains and waters of his hometown, carefree childhood, spirited student days, and still can recall the name of the table, as well as join the work of so many years of experience. So, what do you feel nostalgic about? Lamenting the fact that time passes so easily and we can't rewind to the past, we tend to miss many people and things in the past. Listening in this way, one day suddenly realized that when we stray away from the wonderful sound of the piano and exile ourselves in the mountains and waters of our dreams, everything will be very simple, frank and beautiful. This is the mood that the tune brings. I would like to thank you again for your recommendation.

What is a song? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do that. The first is to make sure that you have a good understanding of what you are doing and how you are doing it. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty. Painters use paintings to send their thoughts and feelings, poets use or pound or euphemistic phrases to express their feelings, writers use articles to express their hearts. So, what about zither players? They use the sound of the piano to release their emotions. Therefore, painting, poetry, literature and music are one and the same, they are all external manifestations of emotion, and the essence behind them is the heart.
From this point of view, there is a story behind every zither piece, or it is created out of some kind of spiritual realization. So what was the original intention behind the creation of the zither piece "Between Mountains and Waters"? Unfortunately, I don't know, but I can only try to add words to it based on my own understanding and imagination:
? Clouds embracing the mountains and the moon probing the window, vaguely deceased, red stove and warm tea.
The fly breaks the gentleman where, a long time ago, across the shore of the blossom.
? The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of the night, and I was in the middle of the night, and I was in the middle of the night.
? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.
? The first time I saw this, it was a dream, a piece of the world.
? I'm not sure where to go, but I'm sure I'll be able to find a way to make it work.
? The heart of the landscape, where not fishing and woodcutting.
? The first thing you need to do is to get a good look at your favorite music.
? The clouds embrace the mountains and the moon probes the window, and the old man, the red stove and warm tea.
The fly breaks the gentleman where, a long time ago, across the shore flowers bloom.
? The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of the night, and I was in the middle of the night, and I was in the middle of the night.
? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.
? The first time I saw this, it was a dream.
? I'm not sure where to go, but I'm sure I'll be able to find a way to make it work.
? The heart of the landscape, where not fishing and woodcutting.
? The first thing you need to do is to get a good look at your favorite music.
? The first thing you need to do is to get a good look at your favorite sports.
? After the song with the lyrics, I tried to listen and chant at the same time, I did not expect to be so wonderful, soothing, so try to send to friends. The best friend's heart seems to have been touched by the great, bright, to the interest, can not help but to express the joy of the heart. So, some people sent a paragraph of small poems, some even tried to sing the whole song, others were ready to have a small recitation, and some people even wanted to write out the tune's short score, so that it would be more convenient for them to sing. In any case, everyone recognized that this tune is very moody, tasteful, beautiful, touching the heartstrings.
A friend of mine wrote: "The mind is pure, the heart if no dust, the breeze comes from; stroking the qin and chanting, the bright moon and flowers, the earth is good spring color."
? Another person summed up the beauty of this song: "Good song must know the artist, good piano also need high skills. It's a perfect match, and it's been passed down through the ages."
A college student said that during the epidemic, he could not go out, he was under the window to read the "Little Window", outside the cold spring, the desk also made a cup of steaming orange boiler. He felt that many of the words written in the book come with a sense of fun, so he sent an impromptu poem: "Boiling water, tangerine Poseidono, clear window, a volume of poetry leaning in front of the window. After the snow cleared up, warm sun and wind, lazy half day to wait for peach blossoms."
Some friends listen to the song after a thousand feelings, really "melodious piano, gentle heart; streams, birds chirping; breeze, orchid incense haunting; living in a simple room, as if the mountain line; with your company, wonderful life!
? Another friend while listening to the song, while practicing calligraphy, the heart with the song to, pen with the heart tour, ink, have come down: "clouds embracing the mountains and the moon to explore the window, the red stove to warm the teahouse;? Flying flowers blossomed in the spring to come, between the landscape is the hometown. The shadow of the passing years, the years away from the wave, a piece of Huang Huang string a song, hometown Iren, Wan in the water center."
A junior also sent his impromptu calligraphy, and a few days later wrote an ancient style full of feelings after listening to (read a friend of the "Guqin song between the mountains and water"), to express the feelings of the heart.

This is the first time I've heard this song, and I'm sure it's been heard in my car.
The fact that a piece of music can bring us so much encouragement, happiness and joy shows that Between the Mountains and the Waters is beautiful, marvelous, serene and far-reaching, and therefore also makes the heart feel frustrated and nostalgic. That's the biggest reason I recommend this track.
The mood expressed in this piece seems to be that after going through the storms in life, one becomes calm and indifferent, and melts together with the mountains and the waters. The guqin is the main sound, and the simple and light piano is the accompaniment and backing, the style of the song is not hasty, even the climax at the end is not overly expressive. The whole piece is very calm and natural, such as the wind, like water, or like floating in the landscape of the boat, so free and easy, and like a quiet pouring moonlight, belonging to a kind of random flow out of the beauty.
? How to express this mood? I tried to put the angle on three aspects when I was matching the lyrics: in the thatched hut on the mountain, in the bamboo forest, and on the lonely boat, in order to express the feeling that we are in love with the mountains and the water. Also added thoughts of the deceased to seem more life-affirming.
The same mountain, the great poet Wang Zhihuan said it is "the Yellow River is far away on the white clouds, a lonely city of ten thousand feet of mountain." Wang Wei said that it is "white clouds look back to close, the green mist into see nothing. The peaks in the field change, and the ravines are different in shade and sunshine." But in Su Dongpo's eyes, it is "looking across the mountains to the side of the peaks, near and far, the heights are different." Different people have different understanding and imagination. There is no definite way to play, as long as you feel that it plays out your own heart is the best, is not it? Because there is a landscape in your heart, where there is no fisherman and woodcutter.

Whether a piece of music can touch people's hearts, I think there are two aspects that are crucial: the composer's original intention, and the performer's understanding and skill, both of which are indispensable. If the author is the first creation, then the performer is the second creation. This is just like the relationship between the translation and the original, if the translator and the performer do not have a strong background, it will make the original work and the original song lose its color, or even lose its color. The composer of the piece "Between the Mountains and the Waters" is Su Yi, who is in his middle age and feels that his understanding of nature is extremely profound; Yang Qing is the performer, who is nearly old and has experienced the world and is mellow and calm. The latter played the piece to a superior state.
Su Yi, a native of Fujian, after 80 years, graduated from Xiamen University, Department of Music, a young music producer, his representative works include "accompany you to grow old", "this life can be seen", "watch the heart of the self" and so on.
Yang Qing, born in 1951, is a famous guqin player and music educator. Currently, he is the vice president of the International Federation of Chinese Musicians, the executive vice president and secretary general of the International Guqin Society; the vice president and secretary general of the China Qin Society; the vice president of the Ethnic Instrumental Society of the China Music Association and the vice president of the Beijing Musical Instrument Society. He is a guest researcher at the Institute of National Studies of Xiamen University and a consultant in the field of traditional culture for the National Studies Society of Peking University. He organizes guqin lectures all over the country and widely promotes traditional Chinese culture. Yang Qing has given a series of lectures on "The Qin Moves Mountains and Rivers" on the program "The Hundred Lectures". If you are interested, you can go online to enjoy it, and you will know his status and influence in the Chinese guqin world.

? This piece is included in the album "Listening to the Rain at Mid-level" played by Yang Qing. In the morning light of the Oriental sheen, in the shade of the sunny forest, in the dusk of the sunset, in the long night when all the music is silent, how would it be to listen to "Between the Mountains and the Water"? How about listening to "Between Mountains and Waters" when the breeze caresses the willow, when the rain falls, when the autumn flowers bloom, or when the snow flies? How about listening to "Between the Mountains and the Waters" when you are strolling in the flowers and the moon, when you are sitting down and sipping tea, or when you are chatting with friends and family around the fireplace at night? I think, while we listen to the tune, with the melody to sing and chant, I believe you will enter the "years in a hurry, youth is difficult to return, in the landscape, free to move forward" in the breath, and this feeling is that kind of refreshing, a thousand turns, long and long, is not it?
? The first thing you need to do is to make yourself happy and let the people around you be happy. If you also like this song, you can try to recommend to their friends, as a right to give a happy, beautiful and thoughts to the friends around.
