Abstract
The main goal of this study was to evaluate the frequency spectrum and the time frequency analysis of guzheng, a Chinese plucked zither. The progressing note for string 21 to string 1 are from D2=73.41 Hz to D6=1174.7 Hz. The G major pentatonic scale consists of the first, second third, fifth, and sixth degrees: D, E, F♯, A, and B. For strings 21 to 2, the notes are arranged as follows: (D2, E2, F♯2, A2, B2), (D3, E3, F♯3, A3, B3), (D4, E4, F♯4, A4, B4), (D5, E5, F♯5, A5, B5). The partials harmonic increased gradually with the harmonic number except for strings 2, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, and 16 where some partials are not harmonic. The time frequency analysis (TFA) for high pitch string shows distinct partial frequency, whereas the low pitch string shows diffused partial frequency.
