| As a social phenomenon,studying abroad is an inevitable trend in the historical development of human society.The emergence of the early Chinese piano student group is not an accident,but a product of the interaction and collision of Chinese and Western music cultures in the first half of the 20th century.According to the author’s incomplete statistics on the group of Chinese piano students in the first half of the 20th century,about 19 Chinese piano students went abroad to study and returned home to serve the motherland.By studying the characteristics of 19 overseas students,such as their native place,family background,and the distribution of countries studying abroad,the author analyzes the activities of the early Chinese piano student group after returning home,which has left a profound impact on the study abroad and the development of piano history in China.In the first half of the 20th century,the group of Chinese piano students mainly included Wang Ruixian,Li Enke,Shi Fengzhu,Wu Leyi,Li Jialu,Li Cuizhen,Chen Ruyi,Wu Bochao,Xiao Shuxian and other outstanding domestic academic piano talents.After studying piano systematically and formally for a long time abroad,they lived up to the expectations of the public and had mature playing skills and advanced teaching concepts,which they imparted to students unreservedly,So that the Chinese piano art continues to develop.This paper attempts to explore the group of Chinese piano students in the first half of the 20th century,so that we can more objectively understand the role and influence of the first group of foreign students in the historical process of China’s piano development,as well as their important contributions to the history of China’s piano art development,which has made a solid step towards the development of China’s piano art.The structure of the full text is roughly as follows:The introduction briefly introduces the academic circles’ explanation of the relevant theoretical concepts of the topic,the reasons for choosing the topic,the research status,research methods and research significance,and emphasizes the shortcomings of the research and the purpose and significance of the topic.The first chapter describes the general situation of the development of piano art in Western countries in the 20th century,and compares the development of piano art between China and the West.Therefore,a group of ambitious young people choose to learn from the West.The second chapter is about the statistics of the composition of the Chinese piano student group in the first half of the 20th century,focusing on the analysis and outline from the region of origin,family background and the distribution of countries studying abroad(this paper makes relevant statistics and carding in the form of tables),and describes and analyzes the representative figures of the Chinese piano student group in the first half of the 20th century.The third chapter summarizes the contribution and influence of this group of foreign students to the development of Chinese piano music in the first half of the 20th century,and analyzes it from three aspects: piano theory,piano creation,piano performance and piano education. |
