四声与五音关系考辩

从古至今,由于四声所依方言不同其说有异,五音所依调式不同其说也有异,关于四声与五音之间的关系聚讼纷纭,莫衷一是。在聘请播音主持专业人士读念汉语,使用现代乐器与录音设备并进行录音与测音进行实验的基础上,研究声调的调高、走向、行程及音乐术语的引入。结果表明：古人研究四声与五音关系是指四声末端音高用乐音表示的;汉语中所存在的调高、走向、行程与音乐中的调高及旋律走向存在相同、相似之处。

The Language of Four Tones and Music of Five Tones

Up till now, no consensus has been arrived at the relationship between the four notes in Chinese and the five scales in music. In this article, Chinese texts are read by professional announcers with accompaniment of modern instruments. The results are recorded and analyzed for doing research in the pitch, trend and route of Chinese tones and the introduction of musical terms in them. From this experiment, the findings are as follows; first, the relationship between four tones in Chinese and five scales in music in ancient China is that end pitch of the fourth tone is expressed by musical sounds; second, there are certain similarities between trends of Chinese tones and music tunes.
