A wind instrument used in Japanese Ming music and Ming and Qing music. It was introduced to China during the Qing dynasty and is also called the Shinteki. It is a transverse flute about 2 shaku 2 sun (67 cm) long, with a long, slender bamboo tube decorated on both ends with ivory or Chinese wood. The bamboo tube has a mouthpiece at the top, then a sound hole, the surface of which is covered with a thin membrane (thin bamboo skin or paper). This is to obtain a tonal effect from the vibration of the membrane. There are also six finger holes at the bottom, and two holes called decorative holes on the front and back of the bottom end. A decorative string is attached to the hole on the back. [Takanori Fujita] [Reference] |Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
日本の明楽(みんがく)および明清(みんしん)楽で用いられた管楽器。中国の清代に伝来し、清笛(しんてき)ともよばれる。細長い竹管の両端を象牙(ぞうげ)か唐木で飾った全長約二尺二寸(67センチメートル)の横笛(よこぶえ)。竹管には、上部に歌口があり、次に響孔があけられ、その表面が薄い皮膜(竹の薄皮や紙など)で覆われる。これは皮膜の振動により音色上の効果を得るためである。さらに下部には六つの指孔(しこう)があり、下端には飾孔とよばれる孔(あな)が表と裏に二つずつあけられている。裏の孔には飾り紐(ひも)が取り付けられる。 [藤田隆則] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
