As an oriental traditional instrument, Guqin has played a significant role since ancient China. What will happen if we use it to play western classical music, such as the music of Bach? Let's enjoy the dream-like fusion of Guqin and Bach, of an oriental instrument and western classical music!
Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major of Bach has always been the favorite of Tang Bin, but the idea of playing it on Guqin was inspired by Liu Xing, a famous Zhongruan player (Zhongruan is another kind of traditional Chinese instrument). He once played Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major on Zhongruan.
After listening to Liu Xing’s performance, Tang Bin started wondering: if Bach can be played on Zhongruan, why can’t it be played on Guqin?
About four years ago, Tang Bin recalled this idea and spent about two weeks to finish adapting the Guqin version of Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major. Though having tried his best, when talking about the final musical effect of this novel attempt, Tang Bin said frankly that this adaptation might have challenged the limits of Guqin, which has a relatively simple structure. This attempt still possesses great value, however, as it tests the boundaries of performing skills suited to acoustic Guqins, helping to inspire future innovative adaptations.
Bai Wuxia, the performer in this video, said that she felt nervous and feared to make mistakes while performing, but was later rewarded by a huge sense of achievement.
