一年多前,我就曾向践耳先生当面请缨,愿为《朱践耳创作回忆录》(上海音乐出版社2015年版)撰写书评。不料事务缠身,拖至今日方才如愿。作曲家的回忆文字,本是音乐中的稀有史料,而以先生的经历和资格,他的创作笔谈当然是中国现当代音乐发展的鲜活见证,不可多得,也不可替代。 More than a year ago, I once personally met Mr. Jerry, writing a book review for “Zhu Jiantai’s Memoirs of Creation” (Shanghai Music Publishing House 2015 edition). Unexpectedly, the business has only dragged on until today. The memory of the composer is a rare historical material in the music. His experience and qualifications make him a vivid witness to the development of modern and contemporary Chinese music, which is rare and irreplaceable.
