Music and culture not only promote the development of each other, but also restrict each other.

The production of music is closely related to culture. Music is rooted in culture, blends with culture, relies on each other, and promotes each other. From the music of a period, we can see the specific environment of that period and the cultural characteristics of different nations and regions.

Music can promote the cultural development of the same period, and good music can inspire people and purify the soul. Therefore, music originates from culture and at the same time is higher than culture.

Culture is the concepts and thoughts formed by a nation or country during a period. It represents the values ????and behaviors of this nation and country, and reflects the living conditions of this group in a certain period. Music affects and infects people's thoughts and hearts through the influence of beauty. It is a bridge connecting national culture and regional culture, and is the best way for the lasting continuation of national culture.

For example, the "Si Zhu" from Jiangnan, the "Sheng Guan" from Hebei, and the "Ancient Music" from Xi'an, etc. These musical instruments have ancient music scores handed down from generation to generation, and are also passed down by musicians from generation to generation. Even today's pop music with strong local flavor can reflect the past glory of these ancient regional cultures and the brilliance blooming in today's music scene.

Chinese music literature generally dates back to the Huangdi era. According to archaeological discoveries, Chinese music can be traced back to more than 7,000 years ago. The Chinese nation has created a rich musical culture over the course of thousands of years of history. Chinese music once had a profound influence on the music in the surrounding areas of China.

At the same time, from the Six Arts of Confucius to the Huqin of the Tang Dynasty to modern Western music, Chinese music has continued to enrich and develop in the process of absorbing foreign musical elements. China is known as the "Land of Ritual and Music". Ancient music plays an important role and status in personality development, cultural life and national etiquette. Confucius put forward the learning steps of "starting with poetry, establishing oneself with etiquette, and achieving success with music."
