Dance music is an important part of dance drama. It plays an important role in expressing ideological content, developing dramatic plots, and shaping characters and personalities. Music not only serves as the instrumental accompaniment for dance, but the music itself has the function of revealing the plot and portraying the inner feelings of the characters, and has strong independence. As people once said: "Music is the soul of dance."

The exploration of Chinese dance dramas has always followed the principles of "making the past serve the present" and "foreign things serve China", focusing on integration and the enjoyment of the masses. The exploration of ethnic dance dramas promoted the refinement and transformation of opera dance, and gradually formed a conventional "classical dance style".
