中国维吾尔木卡姆文化,是西域古代文化发展的主体,其形成发展经历了漫长的时期。中国维吾尔木卡姆的形成发展史大致可以划分为五个时期。一、曙光时期(上古-公元四世纪)这一时期内又可以划分为先秦和汉晋两个时期。这时西域音乐既吸收了中原乐器“笙”等,来自西亚的“琵琶”、“箜篌”等乐器也开始东渐。作为西域古老乐器的“角”、“笳”、“羌笛”则广泛流行并一直沿袭至今。同时,于阗乐、龟兹乐也已开始东渐中原。二、兴隆时期(公元四一八世纪)这一时期以龟兹乐为代表的西域音乐已发展到极盛,并对中原文化产生了深刻的影响。以龟兹乐为代表的西域音乐结构基本形成、为当今木卡姆的发展奠定了坚实的基础。 China’s Uygur Muqam culture is the mainstay of the development of ancient Western culture. Its formation and development have undergone a long period of development. The history of the formation and development of China’s Uyghur Muqam can be roughly divided into five periods. First, the dawn of the era (antiquity - the fourth century AD) this period can be divided into the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties period. At this time, the Western Regions Music absorbed both the Central Plains musical instrument “Sheng” and other musical instruments from West Asia such as “Pipa” and “Wanji”. As the “Western” ancient musical instrument “horn”, “笳”, “Qiang Di” is widely popular and has been followed. At the same time, Yu Yue music, Qiuci Le has begun to East Central Plains. Second, Xinglong period (fourth Century AD) During this period, the music of the Western Regions, represented by Qiuci Le, has developed to a very high level and has had a profound impact on the Central Plains culture. The music composition of the Western Regions, represented by Qiuci Le, has basically taken shape, laying a solid foundation for the development of Muqam today.
