Historic Value of the Music Creation of Shaanxi Erhu Works and Positive Influence of Shaanxi Erhu on the Development of Erhu Art in the Yu and Qin Schools

Abstract

The paper discusses the modern popularity of Erhu, initially, in order to engage its importance that is embedded within the crevices of Shaanxi Erhu traditions. Embarking on journey of genesis and evolution of the music creation elements and characteristics in Shaanxi, the paper observes the practices of the Qin Erhu school. Notably, this tradition still inspires the modern musicians who have been successfully reviving the past. The paper also discusses the characteristics of music creation and elements of concepts in the Shaanxi Erhu music in order to understand the significance and weightage of its content, style and cause for popularity. The author reviewed resources in the knowledge network, library, and other pertinent places before summarising and condensing the most recent mainstream academic papers connected to erhu. The Central Plains Culture in Henan and the Sanqin Culture in Shaanxi serve as prime examples in this respect, since their folk operas, linguistic accents, and ideological and cultural implications all had a significant impact on the development of this kind of musical instrument locally. In the development of Erhu's work in China, several tones have been remixed and reproduced. Majorly the Erhu work is based on the adaptation of norther Shaanxi folk songs. And the dialect of Shaanxi also enhances the quality of Erhu's work. Melody of Shaanxi Erhu compositions fluctuates greatly. Shaanxi Erhu works are charged with nationalistic spirit while praising the heroes of the past, we realise how local Erhu music is deeply entrenched in the living traditions of the culture.
