第25篇 音樂傳播技術的發展

人類自創造音樂的那一刻起，即開始了音樂的傳播。在一個極為漫長的歷史階段中，人類只能通過音樂表演和口授來傳播音樂。音樂保存極為有限，傳播距離和傳播方向也極為有限。

Music transmission began the moment mankind created music. For a very long period of historical development, humans could only transmit music by means of musical performance and oral instruction. There was a severe limitation to the extent of music preservation, as well as to the distance and directions of music transmission.

當人類發明了樂譜后，音樂便開始脫離表演，演變成“文字”得以記錄和傳播。然而，人類音樂傳播的真正革命性里程碑的建立者無疑是科學家們。他們創造了令人嘆為觀止的音樂傳播手段，從最早的機械“留聲機”到今天五花八門的“電子媒體”，音樂的傳播變得如此便捷，如此高保真。

When mankind invented musical scores, music started to break away from the boundaries of being merely a performing art, and develop into a system of “written symbols” that can be recorded and spread. Undoubtedly, however, it was the scientists who should be crowned as the founders of the real revolutionary milestone of human musical communication. Scientists invented marvelous means of music transmission, from the earliest mechanical “record turntable” to today's many kinds of “electronic media”. Music transmission has become something that is amazingly convenient, fast, and “hi-fi supported”!

在20世紀諸多的音樂傳播手段中，無線電廣播的發明和發展對音樂的傳播起了極為重要的作用。然而，高科技的高速發展也使我國廣播音樂工作者在新世紀中面臨嚴峻的挑戰。隨著CD唱片的日益普及，隨著立體聲及數字式音樂電視邁開咄咄逼人腳步，隨著……尤其是隨著“仿佛無所不能的計算機網絡”勢力的高速擴張，新世紀音樂廣播和音樂廣播人還能有所作為嗎？

Among the numerous means of music transmission of the 20th century, the creation and development of radio broadcast5ing played an extremely important role in the industry of music transmission. Nevertheless, the rapid development of high technology has brought serious challenges to China's radio music workers in the new century. With the ever-increasing popularization o CDs, with the aggressive march of the stereophonic and digital musical TV, with... and especially with the rapid expansion of the “almighty computer network” force, what else can be done on the part of the music broadcasting industry and music broadcasters of the new century.
