Abstract

          With the rapid development of Chinese choral art, more and more national choral works are remembered by the world audience for their strong national style, novel performance methods and modern composition techniques. Liu Xiaogeng is a national first-class composer in China. In the process of his creation, he has formed a new personal choral creation style with both national and contemporary characteristics. His works are full of national language characteristics, national instrument characteristics, national form characteristics, national performance characteristics, and national cultural and ideological characteristics. From the perspective of the national complex of his creation, his creation and adaptation of choral works have given the traditional folk songs of Yunnan a contemporary atmosphere without stripping away the national characteristics of Yunnan folk songs. His works have high artistic and aesthetic value.
          The purpose of this study is to analyze the national language characteristics, national instrument characteristics, national form characteristics, national performance characteristics, and national cultural and ideological characteristics of Liu Xiaogeng's choral music works, to better understand the aesthetic and cultural connotations of his choral music works, and to better guide the innovation paradigm of contemporary Chinese choral music works.
