随着世界非物质文化遗产的不断繁荣和发展,一批批优秀的民间传统文化得以完整的保存。而面对当前申报人类非物质文化遗产工作的紧迫性和艰巨性,我们需要科学理论的指导。民族音乐学理论是在研究民间传统音乐的基础上诞生的,是指导当前申遗工作特别是在研究传统音乐文化遗产方面的一门极重要的理论学科。 With the continuous prosperity and development of the world’s intangible cultural heritage, a batch of outstanding folk traditional cultures have been preserved in a complete way. In the face of the urgency and arduous task of declaring the human intangible cultural heritage, we need the guidance of scientific theories. The theory of ethnomusicology was born on the basis of studying traditional folk music and is a very important theoretical discipline that guides the current work of applying for the inheritance, especially in studying the traditional music and cultural heritage.
