First, the significance of the topic selection

Butterfly Lovers is a work that combines lyricism and drama. From the story of Liang Zhu, the author chooses three main storylines, namely, Liang Zhu's love, the British-Taiwan anti-marriage and the grave-throwing become a butterfly, as the theme, and adopts a Western sonata-like structure that is good at depicting dramatic contradictions and conflicts, which is correspondingly expressed in three parts: the presentation part, the expansion part and the reappearance part. At the same time, the author skillfully extracted the musical materials from the beautiful tones of the local opera Yue Opera. The euphemistic melody, smooth and beautiful style, rich Qupai singing, changeable rhythm and complex expression techniques all vividly described this ancient and beautiful legend to people through the symphony of solo violin and orchestra, which reflected the diverse artistic beauty of music. "Butterfly Lovers" has long been one of the most widely circulated classic works in the world, and its artistic value is worth exploring and appreciating by every lover. This paper analyzes the creation background, music content and artistic expression of this music and puts forward some methods to appreciate this music, hoping to understand this music more deeply.

second, the research status and shortcomings (literature review)

The violin concerto, a creative form, has been developed in the west for hundreds of years, and has gone through the stages of production and development to maturity. The violin, a western musical instrument, was introduced into China only a hundred years ago. The creation of China's violin works generally began in the 194s and SO's, when the violin music was basically based on the material of China folk music, until the creation of the violin concerto "butterfly lovers" was completed. The violin concerto "Butterfly Lovers" is a milestone in the creation of Chinese violin music and a classic among Chinese violin concertos.

3. Research methods and research difficulties:

Research methods:

1. Literature method:

By consulting various articles such as newspapers and magazines, as well as books about music reviews, I try to have a deeper understanding of this classic.

2. Comparative method:

By comparing the differences, reference and integration between Liang Zhu and the western sonata, this paper analyzes this typical work of combining Chinese and western.

Difficulty:

China's music is a kind of linear music, which focuses on the lateral development of melody between different parts. It is characterized by: emphasizing profundity, emphasizing charm, undulating melody and being tactful, but the development of harmony is weak; Western music is characterized by alternating vertical and horizontal three-dimensional texture, with main melody music as the main theme, emphasizing form, logic, highlighting the main theme, supplemented by other parts, full and thick sound, emphasizing the longitudinal thinking based on harmony, and strong harmony development. In the works, how to analyze the author's texture, and how the author borrowed from the western harmony system, enhanced the three-dimensional sense of music, nationalized the western harmony and symphonized the national music, is the difficulty of research.
