Zhang Yan was my guzheng teacher. I have played guzheng for almost 40 years, and I am not even close to her level. I still haven't seen any guzheng soloist with such ability of expressing music with the instrument. FYI, she played even better in the eighties. I miss her so much. Thank you so much for the upload.
This performance of Zhang Yan was not from 1970. It was probably recorded between 1977-1979. During that time I was a student of hers. I remember this was one of the concerts before a performance trip she was going abroad organized by the Cultural Ministry of China. The instrument here was made in Ying Kou Musical Instrument Factory, Liao Ning province, in the late 1970s. I bought one too.
Yes I consider myself very lucky had guzheng lessons from her. In the old days, I started with 4 picks, it took some training to get the volume and clarity out of the left-hand chords and it worked for me on all the traditional pieces. Later, I had to add 4 more picks on the left fingers because some contempory pieces needs the left hand to play part of the melody and should have the same tone as the part played by the right hand. It took me a long time to adjust from 4 picks to 8 pick, because
Strongly recommended. Nice Guzheng performance. Even though I can not feel the little brother and sister (music title), but I do feel that there is wide open space and some people are happily running on that wide short grass land. Thank for posting.
@smileykailey1 Considering this was a live performance and the difficulty of the piece, I would say she was pretty good. I have yet to see or hear someone who could play the zheng like her. Too bad she left us too soon.
Y're welcome. BTW, I knew a very talented woman, over 20 years ago, performed with picks on all 10 fingers, I just don't see the need myself for 10 picks yet.
the techniques of plucking and pressing by left hand are very different with the picks, and a lot of pieces needed re-training. Now I use anywhere from 4 to 9 picks depends on what suits the piece.
I didn't mean more picks is better or worse, it depends. And of course you can reach it, just keep playing. I don't have much audio/video collection. I have old VCRs somewhere, like when Lin Ling was a kid, I always like her style, I guess there's a way to upload VCRs. I never upload anything before, I will learn that first.
honestly, i'm not too impressed by her performance here. she made a few mistakes (such as from 2:15 to 2:18) and it was rushed in a monotone in general, not a lot of variations in emotions and strokes. I play this piece as well, and there are definitely better interpretations of it on youtube than this one.
My goodness!! It's a performance. Not many are perfect. It's not like in a studio you can play it over and over until you get it right! She was definitely one of the best of all time. Her contributions to the art of Zheng playing is immeasurable. Not many - even to this day, are superior.
@@tobybrown9504 oh wow I can’t believe I arrogant I sounded, so sorry! As others have said, I’m in no place to judge her. I should’ve just said (or not said anything at all) that in personal taste, there are other interpretations I liked better.
@@hmz1805 In Guzheng music, composers write melodies and mark finger methods simultaneously for reaching what they wanna interprete. That's why we must follow her interpretation in this piece.
張燕老師根本那個年代的混音天后，音色效果都做的超棒，喜翻
那是因為張燕老師是從西樂轉到國樂的。她早年學過鋼琴與豎琴，並把技術用於古箏上。

She passed away in only 51 years old. How could she play better in the eighties?
About this song !!! She is the best player in my mind ~~

Do you know the brand name? I think I had one too! but I can't figure out the name of the brand
真的是非常精彩，只能用出神入化來形容。
真好聽～！那個年代的古箏音色好像也不太一樣，似乎更清亮些
其实是收音/录音设备不太行，低音的频率不太容易录下来。现在便宜设备和高保真设备的区别也主要在低音区和音质
這把琴是張燕老師特別訂製的，是用整塊原木下去刨的，現場聽音色是更加飽滿渾厚的。
音色清亮跟觸弦的方式也有關係的☺️
好像是鋼絲弦的音
這簡直是上天賜予的靈巧之手，求神入化，絕了

羡慕那些做过她的学生的人。
Cheng is always the best! Even though those compositions of fast fingering sequence nowadays should be superbly interpreted by her.
謝謝！因為我無法確認、也找不到任何背景資料，只知道是70年代的，才會這樣標明。感謝您的提供和說明。：）
今天才看到，bossa的介绍里写了这个是張燕1970演奏版的。呵呵。

Well played.
bossa you are amazing.. how did u find a video so long ago! haa

如果古箏演奏者分高中低級的話, 那麼她是超級的

Perfect ！

She really can play.Does she still play as good?
She has passed away in 1996
Wow!
Very nice! In which year was this filmed?

請問誰人得知張燕女士現在何方? 盼覆.
Wilfred Poon 她已過世了
@@tingfachuang3423 真是惋惜，但願安息。
請問古箏張燕大師的這套旗袍裝要上那兒才買的到?
这应该不是旗袍。我感觉就是袄裙，把上衣收束在裙里了，上衣使用了纽扣。如果想玩一玩，淘宝上有很多。如果是想买一件不错的，常穿常用的，最好找个专门的师傅或者淘宝店铺订做。

anybody know who she is？
有人知道她是谁吗？看过这么多人弹琴，今天见到的真的是震撼啊！
she is張燕
張燕大師是浙派古箏大師之一，也是浙派鼻祖王巽之老先生的學生，與項斯華，王昌元，范上娥三位大師師出同門。
I got a feeling he/she don't understand Chinese.
if she plays with herself the way she plays that instrument she ain't need no man

how many years have you played the guzheng?if you think the song's author cannot play the song well,what should l say to you? ignorance or arrogant??

She is the composer of this piece. Her interpretations are definitely the most standard. Any interpretations different from hers are all incorrect.

以前的指法和音乐处理真是惨不忍睹。
Eric Heseri 你能示范一下
现代古筝从技巧上进步很多 但就当时来说左右手速度能到这么快的真是不多 而且张燕女士在古筝技巧革新上做出了巨大的贡献 比如左手技巧的丰富 还有这首曲子的定调突破了传统的D G调 她改编的曲子到现在依然很受欢迎 👏👏👏 她是那个时代杰出的古筝演奏家毋庸置疑
你说这话怕是怀着“西洋乐理是老大“的理念说的
@@yizhang5684 現在她也是公認的浙派古箏大師，即使已過世那麼多年。
可惜故事是个恶毒的骗局
Sadly she had passed away several years ago.
