Research Abstract |
The process of changes in shakuhachi was made definite by considering the structures and designs of shakuhachis(from the Shousouin to modern shakuhachi) based on acoustical theory, experiment, and pictorial analysis of the CT data. Particularly, it was demonstrated that the 7^<th> fingering(a cross fingering of 3^<rd> and 6^<th> tone holes open) of the Shousouin shakuhachi was problematic and famous antique shakuhachis in the Edo and Meiji era were well tuned by the leaving degree of bamboo joints. Moreover, an investigation of Chinese music in the Tang dynasty led an insight that the tonehole system of the Shousouin shakuhachi made it possible to play traditional 28 scales.
