1. Different tones of the musical series

Oriental music is mainly five-tone, with palace, business, angle, sign and feather, and many unvoiced sounds. Western music mainly uses seven tones, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, of which 4 and 7 are two semitones, so voiced sounds appear.

Oriental music and western music are two big conceptual categories. Oriental music includes music from many countries, not only China, but also many other eastern countries. Music from different countries has very different regional characteristics in hearing because of different modes. Western music also includes music from many countries, and the music from different countries such as Germany, Austria and France is different.

2. Differences in pop music

There are popular misunderstandings in the domestic pop music market. Our domestic popular vocal music stays in a very superficial vocal music, and the biggest feature of this kind of popular vocal music band is that the wave is low and the pulse is flat.

From a deeper point of view, it is necessary to run in the nerve pulsation several times before the pulsating waves of this kind of sound waves can be forcibly accepted in the memory nerve. Therefore, this kind of popular vocal music wave is named' Neuropassive Pulsating Vocal Music Wave'.

western pop music: the biggest vocal characteristic of western pop music is that the vocal wave is close to human nerve conduction. When we stay in that kind of vocal music for a long time, we will inevitably adjust our own nervous rhythm with that kind of vocal music, and we will inevitably dance. Therefore, this kind of vocal music wave is named' nerve-forced pulsating vocal music wave'.

3. Their classical music is different

China traditional music pays attention to breathing, while western classical music pays attention to rhythm. The biggest technical difference between the two lies in the tone and the way of playing. On the artistic level, China traditional music mainly expresses Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, emphasizing the wisdom of understanding. Western classical music emphasizes aesthetics and functionality.

The classical traditional symphonies in western countries can best reflect the thinking equation of westerners. The human sound wave of western symphony is advanced by several different timbres, divided into several fragments, and dissolved into the natural sound of simulated creatures. The subtle ups and downs of instrumental music can take the audience away from the current chaos, continue it a little, and make people's thinking tend to be rational gradually.

Features of China music:

1. From the music composition, China music is based on five-tone music. The so-called five-tone mode is a mode composed of five tones: Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng and Yu, which is similar to 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 in the notation. Six-tone and seven-tone in national music are developed on the basis of five-tone.

China's traditional music is generally written in pentatonic scales, such as folk songs Jasmine, Streaming Water, Five Brothers Pasturing Sheep, instrumental music, Moonlit Night on a Spring River, Three Lane of Plum Blossoms and so on. In the past, people often referred to people who couldn't sing correctly as "Five Tones Incomplete", and the "five tones" here refers to these five tones in the five-tone form.

2. In the form of music expression, China's music pays attention to the lateral development of music, that is, the expression of melody. Like China's calligraphy, painting and other arts, in terms of artistic style, China's music pays attention to the lingering charm of melody, emphasizing that the form is scattered and the spirit is scattered. Traditional China's music works are often carried out in the form of single melody, with little use of harmony.

As people are familiar with the top ten famous songs in ancient China, they are basically solo tracks of a certain instrument. Ensemble music is generally used in court ceremonies, religious ceremonies, god-welcoming competitions and other large-scale occasions, which is quite different from western music that emphasizes harmony.

Thirdly, China traditional music is closely related to sister arts such as dance and poetry.

In ancient times, music was generally inseparable from dance. For example, the Six Dynasties Music and Dance in ancient times, the big song and dance in the Tang Dynasty, and the opera music that emerged after the Tang and Song Dynasties all reflected the combination of music and dance.
