Teaching Chinese Piano Rearrangement Music in University in China

Abstract

            Piano music adapted from Chinese folk songs plays a very important role in Chinese piano works because there is a great difference in musical language between western piano music and Chinese folk music. Chinese folk music is mainly composed of pentatonic mode and seven-tone mode. The popularization of piano music through Chinese piano rearrangement makes it more advantageous for Chinese people to accept and understand. Rearrangement is the only way to popularize Chinese piano works and take this as a starting point to constantly enrich and develop the creation of Chinese piano music. Therefore, when college students play folk songs and adapt to piano music, they not only enrich the types of performance but also improve their professional quality. Music culture plays an important role in the campus cultural life. It is one of the essential means and practical measures for implementing quality education in colleges and universities, and also an important part of quality education in colleges and universities. This article presented the development of Chinese piano arrangement music and the teaching of this style of piano works in universities in China.
