每当我们说到外国音乐时,首先想到的是贝多芬、莫扎特、柴可夫斯基、肖邦等流芳百世的西方音乐大师和他们经久不衰的音乐名作《命运》、《费加罗的婚礼》、《胡桃夹子》、《夜曲》等。然而,他们只是西方音乐中的艺术音乐,是外国音乐中的一个部分。在音乐的海洋里还有另一部分,它目前正在逐渐被我们所认识和接受,这就是除西方艺术音乐之外的世界各民族丰富多彩的音乐,即世界民族音乐。 Whenever we talk about foreign music, the first thing that comes to mind is the famed Western music masters such as Beethoven, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, and Chopin, and their enduring musical masterpieces “Destiny,” “The Marriage of Figaro ”,“ Nutcracker ”,“ Nocturne ”and so on. However, they are just art music in Western music and are a part of foreign music. There is another part in the sea of ​​music, which is gradually being recognized and accepted by us. This is the rich and colorful music of all ethnic groups in the world except western art music, namely the world folk music.
