Management and Conservation of Musical Cultural Heritage from an Archaeological Perspective: China's Silk Road Musical Heritage

In order to strengthen the protection of musical cultural heritage, this paper takes three types of "Ni Yi Yuyi", "Qin Wang Po Formation" and "Qin Yinqing" in the Sui and Tang dynasties (AD 581~907) as the research objects, and analyzes the timbre, loudness, tone and instrument combination. First of all, with the help of the database, the relevant historical and cultural materials are collected, classified and summarized. Then, the sound of the four instruments was measured with a Mini wireless microphone Model 1020 (Dongguan, China) and a 4K color microscope Model 700 (New York, United States).The material of the instrument was observed. Finally, the musical characteristics of the Chinese Silk Road in the Sui and Tang dynasties (AD 581~907) were summarized, and the inheritance of the musical heritage of the Silk Road was promoted. The results showed that Xiliang music was mainly used for the performance of the main melody because of its low voice and single melody, while Qingshang music was mainly used for accompaniment, while Tianzhu music and Qiuzi music were mainly used for melody adjustment because of their wide vocal range and diverse tunes, and the two could cooperate with each other to better display the music. Therefore, Xiliang music, Tianzhu music, Qiuzi music and Qing Shang music are the main music of the Chinese Silk Road in the Sui and Tang dynasties (AD 581~907), which not only shows the Buddhist culture of the Sui and Tang dynasties, but also reflects the integration characteristics of Chinese and Western music, and has high archaeological value.

Abstract

In order to strengthen the protection of musical cultural heritage, this paper takes three types of "Ni Yi Yuyi", "Qin Wang Po Formation" and "Qin Yinqing" in the Sui and Tang dynasties (AD 581~907) as the research objects, and analyzes the timbre, loudness, tone and instrument combination. First of all, with the help of the database, the relevant historical and cultural materials are collected, classified and summarized. Then, the sound of the four instruments was measured with a Mini wireless microphone Model 1020 (Dongguan, China) and a 4K color microscope Model 700 (New York, United States).The material of the instrument was observed. Finally, the musical characteristics of the Chinese Silk Road in the Sui and Tang dynasties (AD 581~907) were summarized, and the inheritance of the musical heritage of the Silk Road was promoted. The results showed that Xiliang music was mainly used for the performance of the main melody because of its low voice and single melody, while Qingshang music was mainly used for accompaniment, while Tianzhu music and Qiuzi music were mainly used for melody adjustment because of their wide vocal range and diverse tunes, and the two could cooperate with each other to better display the music. Therefore, Xiliang music, Tianzhu music, Qiuzi music and Qing Shang music are the main music of the Chinese Silk Road in the Sui and Tang dynasties (AD 581~907), which not only shows the Buddhist culture of the Sui and Tang dynasties, but also reflects the integration characteristics of Chinese and Western music, and has high archaeological value.
