What is the first attribute of China's music? 1, education. 2. Politeness. 3. Entertainment

The first attribute of China's music is "ceremony".

China's music once had a profound influence on the music around China. At the same time, China music has been enriched and developed in the process of absorbing foreign musical elements, from the spread of Confucius' Six Arts to the Huqin in the Tang Dynasty, and then to modern western music.

China is known as "the country of rites and music", and ancient music plays an important role in personality cultivation, cultural life and national etiquette. Confucius put forward the learning steps of "prospering in poetry, standing in ceremony and becoming happy".

Extended data:

The ancient "poetry" of the Han nationality is inseparable, that is, literature is closely related to music. The poems in The Book of Songs, the earliest extant collection of poems in China, are accompanied by tunes and sung orally.

This tradition has continued. For example, the integrated official poem in the Han Dynasty was called "Han Yuefu", and Tang poetry and Song poetry could also be sung at that time. Even today, there are pop musicians who compose and sing ancient poems, such as Su Shi's "Shuidiao Tou", which describes the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In ancient times, the Han people despised musicians, unlike painters, because China had a close relationship with calligraphy and painting, and painters belonged to the literati class. In the Song Dynasty, they could even be "examiners by painting".

Musicians have a low status and are only "actors" of aristocratic entertainment. Li Guinian was a famous singer in Tang Dynasty. He had no political status and was praised by people because he often appeared in Tang poems.
