音乐是时间的艺术,为了记录、保留和传播转瞬即逝的音乐,人类创造了乐谱。远古时代,世间并没有乐谱,当时人们还想不出怎样记录音乐的方法。音乐的传播只能以当场的口传心记、鹦鹉学舌,真可谓瞬间的艺术。如果一首美妙的乐曲没有畅通的流传渠道,这音乐曲也就永远消失了.远古的音乐未能流传下来,原因就是没有乐谱的记录。据说中国尧舜时代有一首感染力极强的乐曲,名叫《韶乐》,孔子称之为“尽善尽美”,可惜当时没有乐谱传世,我们现在无法听到这种音乐。乐谱是随着人类的不断进步开化而诞生发展的,很难说它产生于何时。因为乐谱的范畴较广,种类很多,尤如戏剧舞台上有生、旦、净、末、丑形的“脸谱”;出自名厨师手下的美味佳肴有“菜谱”;测定光线有“光谱”;声学中有“频谱”;而记 Music is the art of time, and mankind has created music in order to record, preserve, and transmit fleeting music.

Because of the wide range of musical instruments, many different types, such as the theater stage has students, Dan, net, end, ugly form of “mask”; from chefs under the delicacies of “recipes”; determination of light “spectrum” Acoustics in the “spectrum”; and mind
