If you are looking for a memory from a thousand years ago, you can go to the "Chinese Music Style - Chinese National Musical Instrument Culture Exhibition" at the Minhang Museum.
Traditional Chinese musical instruments are divided into four categories according to different performance methods: percussion instruments, blowing instruments, plucked instruments, and stringed instruments. The different stages of development of the history of Chinese music and chinese musical instruments show the rich accumulation of Chinese music culture for thousands of years. The arrangement of the whole exhibition is very careful and professional, and all aspects introduce the subtleties of ancient Chinese traditional instruments in detail, reproducing the gorgeous movements when they are played.
The exhibition hall not only has physical instruments, but also does a lot of interactive links, showing everyone from ancient pottery figurines to liturgical chimes, from elegant flutes to a variety of strings, from the display of featured instruments to the popular science of instrument production and so on. Whether it is the liturgical music culture of the pre-Qin period, the official music culture of the Tang and Song dynasties, or even the folk music culture of the Ming and Qing dynasties, we can feel the elegant charm of Chinese classical culture and folk customs from the corresponding representative instruments, such as those musical figurines, pottery carved bricks, chimes, chimes, gusher guqin, pipa and other instruments.
