Strings Oasis | Pu'an Mantra 韶翰琴社 | 普庵咒

This is a piece of music originating from the late Ming Dynasty, found in the Three Teachings in One Voice zither score, also known as “Ziddham Stanzas”. It possesses an elegant, simple and solemn tune. Structurally, it consists of six parts: the opening invocation, the starting mantra, and three recitals, followed by the final section. Notably, each section's second half features the same melody, producing a circular and repetitive effect. Its instrumental performance style employs smooth rhythms and wide intervals, evoking the solemn ambiance of ancient temples and Zen practices.
琴曲最早见于明末的《三教同声》琴谱，又名《普安咒》或《释谈章》。琴曲曲调雅畅清逸、质朴平实，颇具庄严肃穆之感，全曲分为佛头、起咒、第一回、第二回、第三回、佛尾六部分。整曲的构独特，每段后半段都出现完全相同的曲调，形成回环反复的效果。演奏风格纯器乐化，节奏平稳，使用较多的撮音，营造出古刹闻禅、庄严肃穆的气氛。
