In 1834, at the meeting of physicists in Stuttgart, Germany, it was decided that the vibration frequency per minute was 440 Hz as a group of a1 sounds (a1= 440 Hz), which was called "the first international sound". "High" is also the standard tone we often talk about. For example, the outer string of the erhu, the first string of the pipa should be set to this standard tone.
Other instruments then adjust their pitch according to this pitch, so that the band has a unified pitch standard. In layman's terms, the alto 6 (read la) in the key of C on the dulcimer should be tuned to this standard pitch. Although the standard tone used by domestic ethnic bands has been adjusted, it does not affect the international definition of standard tone A.
Involving musical instruments
Yangqin (Pinyin: YangQin) was introduced from Persia at the end of the Ming Dynasty. It was originally used as an accompaniment for folk art and formed a variety of genres. After nearly 400 years of circulation and evolution in my country, dulcimer has traditional Chinese characteristics and national styles in musical instrument production, performance art or music creation, and combined with local folk music, it has formed a number of outstanding A genre with local and musical characteristics.
