經典名曲｜十面埋伏｜ 琵琶 ｜Chinese Classical Music｜Pipa

這是一首歷史題材的琵琶曲。關於樂曲的創作年代迄今無一定論。資料追溯可至唐代，在白居易（772—846）寫過的著名長詩《琵琶行》中，可探知作者白居易曾聽過有關表現激烈戰鬥場景的琵琶音樂。
本曲現存樂譜最早見於1818年華秋萍編的《琵琶行》。樂曲描寫西元前202年楚漢戰爭垓下決戰的情景。漢軍用十面埋伏的陣法擊敗楚軍，項羽自刎於烏江，劉邦取得勝利。明末清初，《四照堂集》的「湯琵琶傳」中，曾記載了琵琶演奏家湯應曾演奏《楚漢》一曲時的情景：「當其兩軍決戰時，聲動天地，屋瓦若飛墜。徐而察之，有金鼓聲、劍弩聲、人始馬聲……使聞聞者，而奮戰者，令人感動和人，他。
《十面埋伏》流傳甚廣，是傳統琵琶曲中的代表性作品之一。
"Ambush from Ten Sides" is a large-scale traditional pipa piece with historical themes. Its exact origin is uncertain, but references date back to the Tang dynasty.

The music vividly depicts the decisive battle between the Chu and Han armies at Gaixia in 202 BCE. The Han army defeats Xiang Yu with a strategic ambush, leading to his suicide and Liu Bang’s victory. A historical account from the late Ming and early Qing described the performance as so powerful it evoked sounds of drums, swords, and galloping horses—stirring fear and tears in the audience.

Today, this piece is regarded as one of the most iconic and dramatic works in the traditional pipa repertoire.
