The first [Shiheng Cup] "The Book of Songs" music arrangement competition
The Book of Songs is an existential form of ancient people's life, which carries the cultural spirit and spiritual world of the Chinese nation, and also shapes the Chinese life interest and moral character.
Poetry is used to express a person's intention. The song is to lengthen the language of the poem and highlight the meaning of the poem.
