The Excavation of Musical Instruments in the Song Dynasty and their Impact on Musical Instruments

Abstract

In order to dig deeper into the archaeological value of wind instruments, as well as the timbre and melody characteristics, the Song Dynasty musical instruments were analyzed as an example, and the surface characteristics of the orchestral instruments were observed by high-definition microscope, and the dwarf oxide metal content was observed, and their dyed materials and overall structure were analyzed. The 3D scanning device analyzes the surface's sound resonance and the sound's location. The observation results showed that the materials of arterial canal fluid were mainly bronze, bamboo, elm, mahogany, lead, iron, gold, etc., and white materials, iron sulfate, copper sulfate and iron oxide. Metal oxides are formed on its surface, which has good resistance. The instrument's sound position and center of gravity are the same, mainly in the 1/3 and 1/4 of the whole. The structure of the musical instrument is a whistle, a pipe liquid, a vent, etc., and a resonance appendage is formed on its surface to prolong the transmission distance of the sound and improve the loudness of the sound. The structure of the instrument greatly improves the sound effect of its material, produces and maintains the stability of its timbre and melody, and provides inspiration for modern music production.
