Abstract

The plucked stringed instrument is a very distinctive type of string instrument among Chinese national musical instruments. This paper analyzes the classification of Chinese national plucked stringed musical instruments, and takes pipa (琵琶), ruan (阮), liuqin (柳琴), and zheng (筝) as examples to analyze the current status of the improvement and development of Chinese traditional national musical instruments. Several improvement principles are proposed, including retaining national elements, conforming to national aesthetics, maintaining national charm, and combining art and science.
