Melody Names
Qinyuan Yaolu, Section III, Qin Shu, #7 |
琴書﹕曲名
Qin Shu: Qu Ming1 |
The two most complete Song dynasty lists of qin melodies are Qinqu Pulu by Seng Juyue (the monk Ju Yue2) and this one from Qin Shu, as included in Qinyuan Yaolu.3 In the latter the melodies are listed in columns, usually four to a column, occasionally with some commentary. These are then organized into three sections, consisting of 99, 57 and 97 melodies respectively each (total 253). There is no numbering in the original, either of sections or melodies.

separate page)
2.
僧居月 Seng Juyue (the monk Ju Yue)
Little is known of this monk other than that he lived in Hangzhou during the 12th century; two publications are attributed to him.
All the melodies and lists are divided into three ancient periods. If you begin with the Dao of the qin, Fu Xi was the most ancient. This is clear. Now you take Yao creating Shenren Chang and such melodies as the most ancient. Qin Shi Huang created Yong Daode for the middle period. Cai Yong created such five melodies as You Chun for the most recent ancient period. 先賢既分 (?), now they are arranged below:

(Here there is a comment that the preceding four melodies are called Xi Kang's Four Pieces. There must be a misprint here, as the fourth piece should be 短側 Duan Ce, while what is third here, Deng Gao Yin Wang, does not belong. It then goes on to say that adding the Five Pieces of the Cai Clan makes Nine. Compare Qin Shu, which puts the nine in a logical order.)
