| Abstract(in English) | Raising the concert pitch of musical instruments is said to make the tones brighter, tenser, etc. This paper reports acoustical measurments and listening experiments on the tones of a particular piano where A_4 is tuned to 436Hz, 442Hz, and 445Hz. Physically, the total acoustic energy decays faster and the inharmonicity decreases in the case of single strings, as the pitch is raised. But, subjectively, no consistent relationships were observed between the concert pitches in Hz and the evaluations on the impression of resulting piano tones. |
