湖北黄石西塞神舟会民间信仰仪式音乐研究


李梦溪
摘 要

西塞神舟会是湖北黄石地区一个以祈福求祥、祭祀屈原为主题的民间信仰仪式活动。整
场仪式活动从农历四月初八佛诞日仪式开始至农历五月十八“神舟下水”仪式结束，历时
40 天。整个仪式活包括放生、送本子、扎匠进场、龙船开光、搭戏台、请菩萨（上趸）、游
街、闹船、神舟下水等多个仪式环节，通过道士开光将龙舟和菩萨神圣化，祈望神明能够带
走污秽、病痛和灾殃，保佑一方百姓平安幸福。
祈福纳祥、驱鬼辟邪，从古至今都是广大社群十分重要的仪式活动，随着现代社会的不
断发展，许多古老的民间仪式活动都逐渐濒临消失，西塞神舟会民间信仰仪式活动于 2006
年成功申报了国家级非物质文化遗产。一些学者、民俗学家纷纷对西塞神舟会仪式活动进行
记录与考察，发觉它的学术价值与文化内涵，笔者查阅文献及相关资料，发现有关西塞神舟
会民间信仰仪式活动有关音乐的研究几乎为空白，因此笔者认为对西塞神舟会民间信仰仪式
活动中的音乐进行记录、整理和研究笔者觉得十分有意义。通过对西塞神舟会民间仪式音乐
研究进而探讨在西塞神舟会民间仪式活动中的音乐具有哪些功能。
