During the war years, our country was divided into "Kuomintang-controlled areas" and "liberated areas" for a long period of time, and sometimes an area was divided into "occupied areas". These two and sometimes more than two teams of musicians successfully joined forces with the founding of the People's Republic of China. At that time, except for a few musicians in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao who were still isolated under completely different political conditions, most Chinese musicians devoted themselves with great enthusiasm to the construction of a new socialist music culture. Years of wars and wars have left everything devastated. Although there is a lot of waste waiting to be done, people's spirit is full and upward, and all aspects of music and culture are full of vitality and prosperity.

"Let's Dance"

Lyrics by Qiao Yu, music by Liu Chi. The interlude of "Flowers of the Motherland" by Dian Zu was composed in the mid-1950s. This is a beautiful and lyrical two-part children's chorus. It depicts the happy scene of flowers in New China rowing boats and singing happily on the sun-drenched lake. What is particularly thought-provoking is the last question: "Dear partner, who has arranged a happy life for us?" It cleverly clarifies the theme of the song and expresses the children's sincere emotions of loving the Party and New China. The music of the whole song is beautiful, lyrical and dynamic.
