曾侯得编钟与周代编钟音列的发展

Chime Bells of Marquis De of Zeng and the Development of Chime Bells Tone Series in the Zhou Dynasty

曾侯得编钟乐音体系为bE宫系统六声十八律,基本音级为徵-羽-宫-商-角-和,也可以被看成bE宫五声音列和bA宫五声音列集合,因此出现了bE宫“和”声,是曾国编钟序列的重要环节。参考其他春秋中期编钟的测音数据,推测编钟旋宫功能的发展使其音列出现不同宫五正声的集合,从而产生了超出五正声的声,这为探究曾侯乙编钟“十二声”系统的形成过程提供了线索。

The pitch system of chime bells of Marquis De of Zeng is the six notes and eighteen pitches of bE key,and the primary notes are zhi(sol)-yu(la)-gong(do)-shang(re)-jiao(mi)-he(fa).It can also be regarded as the collection of five primary notes of bE key and bA key.Therefore,the he note of bE key appears,which is an important part of the sequence of chime bells of the Zeng State.By referring to the sound data of other chime-bells in the mid-Spring and Autumn period,it is speculated that the development of the music function of chime bells,which can also be interpreted as a kind of modulation,makes the tone series appear as a collection of different keys,resulting in another note besides the five primary notes.The tone series of chime bells of Marquis De of Zeng provides a clue for exploring the formation process of chime bells of Marquis Yi of Zeng's 12-tone temperament.
