A Study on the Relationship between Tone and Lyrics in Gannan Tea-Picking Opera: Integrating Linguistic Acoustics and Melodic Analysis

Abstract

Studying the relationship between opera singing and dialects is essential for exploring the deeper meanings of music and culture. Based on existing data, this article focuses on the relationship between tone and melody in the relationship between tone and melody. By introducing artificial intelligence technology, this paper utilizes quantitative annotation of dialect tone fundamental frequency and melody pitch curves, replacing traditional manual aural discrimination to ensure data consistency and scale. Furthermore, the word-tone combination types of the Hakka dialect are analyzed, and the mapping matching degree between the tone curve and the melody curve is quantitatively calculated. Finally, through a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis, we aim to accurately and efficiently explore the regularities of the relationship between tone and melody in the Hakka dialect of Xinfeng County, Gannan, and opera singing.
