This course selects important topics in the history of music aesthetic development for introduction and discussion, and matches or compares them with Chinese and Western related discussion points. Through teachers' lectures and reading discussion papers, students can understand and think about the important topics and points of musical aesthetics, and deepen their understanding of the relevant phenomena in music history. During the course, we will introduce the discussions about the relationship between music and body, emotions and psychological states in Chinese Confucian and Taoist thoughts. We hope to lead students to reflect on the state of their performance or creation, which will help the growth of their own music profession. The course content is for students who are interested in music therapy and music education, and can provide relevant thinking and exploration opportunities.
