It is understood that Quanzhou Nanyin is one of the oldest surviving music genres in China, with its large number of repertoire, ancient instruments and self-contained notation methods, continuing the bloodline of Chinese music since the Han and Tang Dynasties. With its long musical history and diverse cultural characteristics, Nanyin is known as the "living fossil of Chinese music history", and in 2009, Quanzhou Nanyin was officially included in the UNESCO Representative List of intangible cultural heritage of humanity.
