Pipa, the earliest plucked instrument, is a plucked instrument. The loudspeaker is made of wood or bamboo, and it is half pear-shaped with four strings on it. Originally made of silk thread, now it is made of steel wire, steel rope and nylon. Provide "phase" and "product" for the neck and panel to determine phonemes.

It is an important national musical instrument for solo, accompaniment, ensemble and ensemble.

Pipa is a traditional plucked instrument in East Asia, with a history of more than two thousand years. The earliest musical instrument "Pipa" in China appeared around the Qin Dynasty. The word "Jue" in the word "Pipa" means "two pieces of jade collide and make a pleasant knocking sound", which means that it is a musical instrument that sounds by plucking the strings.

Their names "Pi" and "Pa" are based on the right-handed skills of playing these instruments. In other words, pipa and arpeggio are the names of two playing techniques. The right hand plays the pipa forward and the right hand plays the arpeggio backward. Before the Tang Dynasty, pipa was also a general term for all plucked instruments of the Pipa family in Chinese. Chinese pipa spread to other parts of East Asia and developed into Japanese pipa, Korean pipa and Vietnamese pipa.

There are many schools in the history of modern Han music in China, such as Shanghai School (Pudong School), Zhejiang School (Pinghu School) and Wang School.
