论《东皋琴谱》的琴律

On Qin-Temperament Of Dong Gao Qin Music

《东皋琴谱》是东皋心越禅师于 16 76年东渡日本后所传之琴曲集 ,本文据此谱中所载的操缦曲《调弦入弄》和《操缦引》入手 ,对《东皋琴谱》所用的琴律试探讨。在以往的琴律研究中 ,一般均参用弦长比 (两律相加用乘法 ,两律相减用除法 )来计算琴律 ,但所得的弦长比值在直观上不易识别其所代表的相对音高。本文则先按各琴徽弦长比求得其音分数 ,在计算中则直接用加减法 ,故在直观上也较容易识各音分数所代表的相对音高。

Dong Gao Qin Music was a book of collected lyrics passed in Japan by a Buddhist monk Xin Yue in 1676. The writer took two pieces from that book, Tiao Xian Ru Long (the way of tuning string), Cao Man Yin (playing silk) as examples, analyses the qin temperament used in Dong Gao Qin Music. To research of qin temperament in past time, it was commonly used the proportion of the strings lengths to calculate the qin temperament (plus two temperaments by multiplication and subtract by division). But that the results of the proportion of the strings lengths were not easy to recognize the pitch or tone they represented. In this paper, it was to get the number of the cents by proportion of the strings lengths, and use them directly with addition and subtraction in calculation, and then their results were easy to distinguish the related pitches from the represented number of the cents.
