However, music is the art of sound. Both piano and national music instruments reflect sound art. Similarly, both of them blend with and affect each other. For instance, some excellent piano works in China inherit national culture and fuse western music techniques. Timbres of national musical instruments present the music characteristics of combining Chinese elements with western elements and integrating with each other in piano performance.展开更多

The purpose of this research was to apply a multiple choice model to predict the quality of musical instruments based on data on lute soundboard vibrational properties of Paulownia wood. In the lute production, lute material selection mainly depends on the subjective evaluation of technicians, which is not only inefficient, but inaccurate. In this study, nine lutes were fabricated. Using the multiple selection model, the lute tone quality was predicted by the soundboard wood vibration data. Compared with the actual value, the dependent value predicted by the count of observations with the maximum probability had 22 erroneous judgments. The model precision is 87.78%. The results confirmed that the prediction model can be used as a guideline for the selection of the soundboard wood in musical instrument plants.展开更多
