What are the specific categories of music?
The division of traditional music was first seen in the Introduction to National Music compiled by China Conservatory of Music, which can be divided into five categories: songs, singing and dancing music, rap music, opera and instrumental music. However, most colleges and universities

incorporate singing and dancing music into folk songs in their teaching, so it becomes four categories: folk songs, national instrumental music, quyi (that is, "rap") music and opera music.

Actually, "national music", "traditional music" and "folk music" are three different concepts: "national music" includes traditional music and new music; And "folk music" is just a category of traditional music. And our national music is very rich, in addition to folk music, including court music, religious music and literati music.

Mr. Du Yaxiong classifies China traditional music as follows: folk music, literati music, religious music and court music; Among them, folk music includes folk songs, folk instrumental music, folk songs and dances, opera music and rap music. Literati music includes guqin music, poetry chanting, and literati self-tune; Religious music includes Buddhist music, Taoist music, Christian music, Iranian music, Shamanism and other religious music. Palace music includes sacrificial music, court music, welcoming music, touring music and feasting music.
