The zhongruan (Chinese: 中阮; pinyin: zhōngruǎn; lit. 'tenor ruan'), is a Chinese plucked string instrument. The zhongruan has a straight neck with 24 frets on the fingerboard and 4 strings. It is usually played with a plectrum (guitar pick). It can also be played with fingers (index finger and thumb with acrylic nails), which is similar to the way of playing the pipa (琵琶). The zhongruan is a tenor-ranged instrument in the family of ruan (阮). In ancient China, the ruan was called Qin pipa (Qin [Dynasty] pipa, 秦琵琶) or Ruan xian (阮咸). Now the ruan has expanded to different sizes and the zhongruan is the "medium" one.

dbo:abstract
  • Le zhongruan (chinois : 中阮 ; pinyin : zhōngruǎn) est un instrument de musique à cordes pincées traditionnel chinois de la famille du luth. Sa caisse de résonance est ronde et généralement de couleur claire (table d'harmonie en bois de rose ou en palissandre clair), avec deux ouïes ; c'est probablement la raison pour laquelle il est aussi appelé "Moon Guitar" [guitare de lune] en anglais, plutôt qu'à cause de sa sonorité veloutée. Il comporte quatre cordes et 24 frettes. Il est généralement joué avec un plectre. Ses cordes sont généralement accordées en sol2-ré3-sol3-ré4 et son registre est dans les ténors. * Portail des musiques du monde * Portail du monde chinois (fr)
