Instrumental tuning and acoustic foundations in ensemble performance: a methodological and practical analysis

Abstract

This article provides a scientific and methodological investigation into the problems of instrumental tuning, tonal purity, intonational stability, and collective timbre and tonal harmony (acoustic balance) in the context of Uzbek folk instrument ensembles. Accounting for the structural and acoustic specificities of traditional instruments, the study elucidates a methodology for establishing a unified fret system within an ensemble and enhancing the quality of collective performance through structured practical exercises.
