Research on the Singing of Ancient Poetry Songs

The origin of China's ancient poetry songs can be traced back to the Poetry Scriptures of the pre-Qin Dynasty, in which the "elegant music" was sung to music. In contemporary times, the development of ancient poems and lyrics can be traced back to the 1920s and 1940s, when a large number of outstanding Chinese musical talents returned from overseas studies and brought back advanced music creation theories and art song creation techniques from abroad, and these composers combined these Western techniques with China's traditional culture.
