At the fourth meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage held in the United Arab Emirates, Xi 'an Drum Music was included in the representative list of intangible cultural heritage of mankind. 20 1 1, 1, 65438 The "Xi 'an Drum Music" learning base, which was listed by UNESCO as a representative of the intangible cultural heritage of mankind, was established in zhouzhi county Art and Technology School, Shaanxi Province, and received 50,000 yuan of financial support from the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Culture.

The protection of Xi 'an drum music is not optimistic. There are only 13 folk drum clubs in Xi' an, with more than 200 musicians, and there are no more than 10 experts studying drum music in Xi' an. What is even more frightening is that although there are more than 1000 pieces of ancient music handed down and nearly 200 pieces translated, there is no drum club. This requires efforts from generation to generation.

In order to spread "Xi 'an Drum Music", zhouzhi county Art and Technology School provided 63 students with full free education and good accommodation. Yu Huaqing, director of the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Culture, said that zhouzhi county Art and Technology School has made great efforts to inherit the "xi 'an Drum Music". In the future, the Provincial Department of Culture will pay more attention and support to the inheritance of zhouzhi county drum music, and create more opportunities for drum music to go out of zhouzhi county, Shaanxi and China.
