快板书是一种传统说唱艺术，属于中国曲艺韵诵类的曲种。早年称作“数来宝”，也有其它名称如“顺口溜”等。快板可追溯到宋代由贫民演唱的“莲花落”演变发展而成。快板在早期是作为乞丐沿街乞讨时使用的一种要钱或要饭的方式和表演手段，历史相当久远。在1950至1960年代，快板才被认可作为曲艺艺术的一种表演方式而存在。快板表演的方式简单，有单口、对口、群口和快板书四种表演方式。快板艺术在发展的同时，因受地域环境、地方方言和表演风格的不同，也分出不少流派。当中最出名的三大流派有高派（高凤山）、王派（王凤山）和李派（李润杰）。
Clapper Talk is a type of ‘Shuo Chang’ traditional art somewhat like rapping, it was categorized as one of the singing arts in China. In the early years, it was also called ‘Shu Lai Bao’ and ‘Shun Kou Liu’. The history of clapper talk can be tracked from Song Dynasty which was used by poor people who sang the song named ‘Lian Hua Luo’. Clapper talk is a performance that is always presented by the beggars to beg for food or money by the roadside. Until the 1950s and 1960s, Clapper talk was recognized by their country as a type of art in singing performances. Nowadays, this performance can be displayed in four methods which are single, double, multiple and storytelling. On the other hand, due to some impacts like district environment and different dialects will show the different styles of performances. The main representatives factions of clapper talk are ‘Gao’, ‘Wang’ and ‘Li’.
我所演绎的快板表演是以快板书的方式来进行。快板书的特征在于有完整的故事情节和人物形象，容量大，篇幅长，是一种叙事性的快板。以《吹牛皮》为例，其内容是在叙说两只蟋蟀分别是蝈蝈和蛐蛐正在斗嘴吹牛皮时，蝈蝈意外被一只大公鸡给吃了。蛐蛐见了，不但没逃，相反的还在那边骂公鸡，想找公鸡单挑。结果，蛐蛐也是免不了落得被公鸡吃的下场。这故事是幽默的，但其实也在暗示我们做人不可说大话、不自量力，否则必有损失。
打快板讲究腕力的使劲度、左右手并用和节奏感分明。打快板时要有耐性，否则所有的招式和节奏感一定会被打乱。此外，也要配合内容情节放入适当的快板招式。如我在说《吹牛皮》时，大部分只使用小板，打出基本点的“嗒嗒嗒”声来做叙述。只有在紧张的情节时，才会使用大板，上扬或下砸拍了一下，发出“特”的声音，来引起观众注意力。
这种快板表演主要的特色有明（内容直截了当）、短（恰当好处）、快（内容与时俱进）、包袱（幽默诙谐）、夸张（增添色彩）和铺陈（叙述描写）。正是这些特色体现出快板的简洁有力，又不失风趣，娱乐观众。因此，我认为李泽厚“中国艺术是线的艺术”这道理也可套用在快板上。通过快板的节拍和内容搭配，有助于更好的传达词意，渲染气氛，为线性的音乐发展提供条件，形成了“有意味的形式”。
I am using the storytelling style to present my clapper talk performance. It has a complete storyline with funny characters. It is definitely a type of narrative. I narrate the story named ‘Boasting’ which was about the story of two crickets, ‘Guo Guo’ and ‘Qu Qu’ boasting to each other. Unfortunately, Guo Guo was eaten by a roaster. However, Qu Qu didn’t run away but he stayed there and argued with the roaster. In the end, Qu Qu also did not escape from being eaten by the roaster. This story was quite funny and interesting because the cricket is trying to do something that is out of his own ability. The moral of the story is do not simply boast otherwise it will bring us to loss.
In addition, when performing the clapper talk, we need to be noted with some steps like controlling the strength of our wrist, using both hands to play the clappers in an accurate tempo. We can also try to put some suitable techniques into the content that we are going to present. For example, I commonly use the small clapper when I am still narrating. Once I used the big clapper, it meant the interesting part was approaching, I wanted to attract the attention of my audiences. This is because the sound of the big clapper is louder than the small clapper.
Chinese allegro clapper had six art characteristics which are ‘Ming’ means the content is easy to understand, ‘Duan’ means short and simple, ‘Kuai’ means always following the trend, ‘Bao Fu’ means humour, ‘Kua Zhang’ means exaggerate and ‘Pu Chen’ means narrative. Because of these art characteristics, the presentation of clapper talk can entertain the audiences well. In my opinion, I think ‘Chinese art is a line art’ said by Mr Li Ze Hou can be applied on Clapper Talk too. Through the combination between tempo and content, it helps us to express ourselves better.
修雯同学好，我是慧莹。观看你的视频后，我满脑子都还停留于你的快板，非常有趣。据知，打快板非常讲究腕力的拿捏与手的配合，这样才能使之有节奏感。从你的视频中可见你的表演都拿捏得很好。从你介绍得知这是早期之时乞丐乞讨的一种艺术，与其这么说，在我认为他是非常娱乐众人的一种艺术，听了后感到好不愉悦，非常有趣。
回复删除快板书是一门特别的艺术，它和相声的相似点在于它们的故事都是幽默诙谐的。只不过在快板里，加入了大小板的击打，更显欢快。快板书特别讲究左右手的协调，对节奏性的要求非常高。除了大小板的相互配合以外，在说故事的时候还要跟着击打的节奏走，这样的表演才会如行云流水般流畅、舒服。修雯的快板书很好的展现了左右手的配合与节奏这一点，说故事的表情也是完全沉浸在故事当中，毫无违和感。
回复删除听完了修雯的快板书，快板的“嗒嗒嗒”声仍在我的耳边不断回荡。快板讲究的是节奏感，这十分考验表演者的腕力与左右手的相互配合，否则节奏感就会被打乱，节奏感把控得不好就会影响了表演的流畅性。节奏感这一方面我觉得修雯做得很好，再根据她剧本的内容融入了适合的快板招式，我的注意力全被她所吸引，听的津津有味。
回复删除修雯你好，我是瑞涵。通过你的视频我这才首次接触”快板书“。整个表演我觉得非常好，既轻松又有趣，故事与快板的节奏相互配合非常吸引我。大板与小板的节奏不同却不会觉得混乱，反而随着故事情节更助于推动其发展，非常吸睛。故事除了简洁明了也幽默诙谐，既有娱乐性也有启发性。表演者的口语能力、定力和耐性都非常重要，从这里我也看出了表演的不易。期待你下次的演出，加油！！！
回复删除修雯你好，你的快板书表演十分精彩，让人听完回味无穷。快板书不仅讲究表演者的口语能力、腕力的使劲度而且打快板节奏还得快、狠、准。通过你的视频让我看到快板的简洁有力，又不失风趣的呈现。期待你下一次的表演！
回复删除修雯的快板表演，给我带来了不一样的体验。
回复删除十分的佩服修雯能够在说故事的同时很好的控制了快板的节奏，大板的使用点也非常的适合。修雯的语气、快板声、故事内容真的非常有渲染力，听了真的非常开心。我想这十分符合了你在鉴赏里所写的“通过快板的节拍和内容搭配，有助于更好的传达词意，渲染气氛，为线性的音乐发展提供条件，形成了“有意味的形式”。”
修雯的快板表演视频真的被我循环播放的许多次，虽然听了很多次但依然意犹未尽，期待之后有机会看到你其他的表演，或许能够考虑和源珊进行搭档表演。
修雯同学你好。我非常佩服你的表演。我也认为快板表演真的很不容易掌握，除了要控制手上快板的使用法避免出错，还要一边说话真的真的很不容易。最后的部分你也有向我们展示快板的打法，我觉得要学会真的很不容易也要花很长的时间和耐心啊！
