二十世纪钢琴音乐中的一枝奇葩——格什温《蓝色狂想曲》钢琴教学的分析与研究
摘要
这篇论文从扩展高师钢琴音乐教学曲目的角度出发，选择
了二十世纪具有国际影响的美国作曲家乔治·格什温的《蓝色
狂想曲》进行分析。论文分四个部分，分别从乐曲创作背景；
音乐体裁、主题及结构分析；钢琴织体与演奏技巧；作品的艺
术价值和深远的社会影响等方面进行了初步探究。
《蓝色狂想曲》是世界公认的二十世纪一部杰出的钢琴文
献；是将美国黑人音乐、民间音乐及通俗音乐融进钢琴艺术的
一次非常成功的具有开创性的尝试。用这部作品作为高师钢琴
教学研究的选题，具有一定的学术价值和实践意义。
论文的核心部分在于对这部作品的音乐本体进行了较为
深入和多侧面的剖析，将这部带有自由曲式结构意味的狂想
曲，界定为单乐章、多主题、自由拼贴的多段体结构。为了论
证这个界定，论文首先从音乐主题材料的分析归纳入手，将全
曲的音乐材料提炼出六个基本主题及三个派生主题，由此深入
这部作品的结构核心。
其次，对贯穿于这部作品的具有黑人民间音乐特点的节奏
以及在此基础上形成的钢琴织体进行了剖析。从全曲五百多小
节的音乐中，抽取了多处最能体现黑人布鲁斯音乐节奏特点的
段落进行了阐述。而这些节奏也正是爵士乐及现代通俗音乐的
首都师范大学硕士论文 内客扬要
动力性骨架。透过这些分析，显现出这部作品在专业钢琴音乐
与通俗爵士音乐之间的联系。
此外，本文还从钢琴演奏的角度，对这部作品的演奏风格
从总体把握到具体段落的演奏，根据自己的分析和实际弹奏的
心得体会，进行了演奏技法的初步总结归纳，为弹奏这部作品
提供艺术处理方面的参照。
Thinking of enlarging piano pedagogy repertory in normal colleges, the author chose the 揜hapsody in Blue?by George Gershwin the 20th century American world wellknown composer, as a subject. The thesis is divided into four parts and starts by a preliminary study of the background, then followed by discussions about the musical genre, themes and structural analysis, piano texture and technical skills in playing, and ended by giving a summary to the artistic value and profound social influence of the work.
The 揜hapsody in Blue?is generally acknowledged by the
h
world as an outstanding piano repertory of the 2O~ century. It is an
initiative and successful attempt to blend the American music of the Black people, folk music, and pop music into the art of the piano. Taking this work as a subject for research in normal college piano teaching is academically valuable and meaningful in practice.
The core of this thesis is the analysis in detail of the music, and the definition of the form as a single movement free style Fantasia

Abstract
with mult-themes and multi-phrases in mosaic structure. In order to expound this definition, the article analysized and summarized elements of the musical materials and refined them into six basic and three derivative themes, while getting into the analysis of the structural core of the piece.
Secondly, the article analysized the rhythm of American?s folk music of the black people and the piano texture based on these rhythms. It chose many phrases from the over 500 bars?work and expounded those which could mostly reflect the characteristic rhythm of the 揃lues?. In fact, these rhythms were the main powerful framework of jazz and pop music in the modem time. The analysis showed the relation between professional piano music and the popular jazz music in this work.
In addition, the article discussed from the view point of piano performance by the author?s own experience and initially summarized the playing techniques of how to grasp the musical style as a whole and pay attention to the particular phrases as well in one?s performance. These points provides some reference in dealing with the art of its music and the playing of the work.
