Yu Da Ba Jiao (雨打芭蕉) - Rain Pattering on Plantain Leaves, Earliest music sheet in 1921.
Year: 1921 Title: Yu Da Ba Jiao (雨打芭蕉) - Rain Pattering on Plantain Leaves
《雨打芭蕉》为中国汉族民间器乐曲。乐谱最早载于1921年丘鹤俦所编《弦歌必读 》,后由潘永璋改编,成为广东音乐代表性曲目。曲首以流畅明快的旋律表现人们 的喜悦之情,然后接以句幅短小、节奏顿挫、并比排列的乐句互相催递,短促的断 奏,犹似雨打芭蕉淅沥之声,极富南国情趣,最后为气氛热烈的快板段落。
