 Working Papers-Chinese New Music as a Politicized Language: Orthodox Melodies and Dangerous Tunes
Music, in many ways the most abstract of the arts, appears to be, by its very nature, a particular threat to and a (potentially negative) commentary on the political environment.
Music is presented in these classical Chinese works as a model of the macrocosm (disorder in music is said to have indicated disorder in the world) and the very forms of the art are described as representative of political structure.
Music becomes, in this case, a weapon in an everpresent battle, and in the struggle between the PRC and Taiwan it is one that is used in very similar ways by political opponents, as part of a symbolic armory that also includes literature and theater.
