“狂想曲”,是器乐曲的一种, 技术要求比较规范、艰深。它常以优美的民间曲调为基础,加以改编,发展而成,大都结束在高潮中,类似叙事性的乐曲,并富有史诗的意境。并不象名称标榜的那样“狂”,匈牙利作曲家李斯特曾写过近二十部“狂想曲”,冼星海同志也写过《祖国狂想曲》。 “Rhapsody” is a kind of instrumental music, technical requirements more standardized, more difficult. It is often based on beautiful folk tunes, adapted from the development, mostly in the climax, similar to the narrative music, and full of epic mood. Not like the name advertised as “crazy”, the Hungarian composer Liszt had written nearly twenty “Rhapsody”, Xian Xinghai also wrote “Rhapsody of the Motherland.”
