À propos de la notation chiffrée

La notation chiffrée (aussi appelée Jianpu, 简谱) note chaque son de la mélodie par un chiffre de 1 à 7 plutôt que par une note sur une portée. Le chiffre indique la position de la note dans la gamme du chant -- pas sa hauteur exacte -- de sorte que la même mélodie garde toujours la même apparence, quelle que soit la tonalité chantée.

Au sein d'une même octave, les chiffres 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 correspondent aux syllabes familières do ré mi fa sol la si. Un point au-dessus d'un chiffre le fait monter d'une octave ; un point en dessous le fait descendre d'une octave -- l'absence de point correspond à l'octave médiane, telle qu'écrite.

Un chiffre seul dure un temps. Un tiret (-) juste après un chiffre prolonge cette même note d'un temps supplémentaire. Un trait sous un chiffre le raccourcit au contraire -- un trait vaut un demi-temps, deux traits un quart de temps. Un 0 est un silence : une pause d'un temps.

L'indication en haut de la partition, par exemple "1=C" ou "1=Ab", précise la hauteur du degré 1 (le "do"). Un chant en mineur porte plutôt l'indication "6=X" -- le degré 6 (le "la") est alors la véritable tonique. Les noms d'accords indiqués au-dessus des notes (comme "C" ou "G7") restent toujours écrits avec leurs noms de lettres habituels, jamais sous forme de chiffres.

Par exemple, sous l'indication "1=C", les chiffres 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 correspondent aux notes C D E F G A B. Sous l'indication "1=G", ces mêmes chiffres correspondent plutôt à G A B C D E F# -- même forme, tonalité différente.

Chapter one of Genesis

Experience of God As Life

English1192
1
Chapter one of Genesis:
Life is God’s one emphasis,
Showing Christ subjectively,
Step by step He grows in me.
2
Just as earth became a waste,
Death and darkness once I faced.
God had judged, no light did shine;
Hollowness and void were mine.
3
Satan’s fall had filled the seas
With corruption, sin, disease.
Yet the Spirit brooded o’er
The abyss: chaos no more!
4
God then spoke: the air was cleared!
Darkness which I once had feared
Was dispelled by God’s own light.
A new day! No longer night!
5
As the light began to shine
His discernment became mine.
I began to see aright;
God divided dark from light.
6
Then the waters He did split;
An expanse between them fit,
Earthly things from heavenly,
Separated hence they’d be.
7
On the third day God designed
That the waters be confined.
In our lives dry land must be;
No more death and no more sea!
8
God commands: death’s water halt!
Christ, the good land, we exalt!
Separated from all strife
We enjoy Christ as our life.
9
Growing in us inwardly;
Grass, then herb, then fruitful tree.
We begin as but a blade;
Soon our being He’ll pervade.
10
Then the fourth day lights He set;
Bearers these, more definite.
Richer light to radiate,
Higher life to generate.
11
Sun, the greater light we see
Ruling day triumphantly;
Yet when darkness fills the skies,
Waxing moon is on the rise!
12
’Tis the Church she typifies;
For her light on Christ relies.
In His image meant to be,
She reflects Christ perfectly.
13
Lastly, precious stars He placed,
Strong in spirit, full of grace;
Shining when the moon seems faint,
These are overcoming saints.
14
What a glorious picture here:
Sun and moon and stars appear!
Lord, our prayer is that we’d be
Full of light and life in Thee.

I had just re-listened to bro. Minoru's speaking during the 2013 Crystallization study on Genesis, part 1. In Message 3, titled "The Experience of Christ as Life Portrayed in Genesis 1", he concluded by saying that this hymn is relatively unfinished. This hymn went "only to the 4th day... hymn writers, finish this hymn. We need 20 verses. We need to cover day 5 and day 6. Otherwise, it is an unfinished story." The complete story is our human life fully mingled with the divine, zoe life, a life that bears God's image and expression, and represents God in His dominion, to accomplish His eternal purpose. Amen.

No wonder Mozart's works were so full of life! He had caught the vision of the resurrected Savior. His meditations on the word were fruitful. He saw the glory of what man may be in Christ, and this song captures it perfectly.

Praise the Lord Jesus that in Him is the Life! The Bible is a book of life. We should read it as a book of life!

Amen for the plan He purposed for His will.
