阿炳，原名華彥鈞，民間音樂家。

1893年，阿炳出生在無錫。四歲喪母，自幼跟父親學(xué)習(xí)鼓、笛、二胡、琵琶等樂器。十六七歲便學(xué)會(huì)了結(jié)構(gòu)繁復(fù)、技法多變的梵音，吹、拉、彈、打、唱、念樣樣精通，當(dāng)時(shí)頗有名氣。然而，年過而立之后，阿炳的境遇急轉(zhuǎn)直下。先是因染上吸食鴉片等惡習(xí)導(dǎo)致生活潦倒，隨后患上眼疾，雙目相繼失明，再到后來便流落街頭賣藝，生活十分貧困。底層的生活讓他歷盡了人世的艱辛，飽嘗了舊社會(huì)的辛酸屈辱。但才藝出眾的阿炳，經(jīng)常通過拉二胡、彈琵琶的方式來表達(dá)自己的愛恨情仇，通過音樂揭露當(dāng)時(shí)的黑暗。他把自己對(duì)痛苦生活的感受通過音樂反映出來《二泉映月》便是阿炳對(duì)生活的寫照，也是他情感宣泄的傳世之作。Whichmusiciandoesthereadingpassagemainlytalkabout?Whatisthenameofhismostfamouspieceofmusic?Howdoesthewriterfeelaboutthispieceofmusic?FastreadingReadandanswerthequestions.Readingstrategy閱讀策略NotingsupportingdetailsSupportingdetailscanbeexamples,reasons,opinionsorotherdetailedinformationineachparaghraph.
