There are three significant trends in the protection，inheritance and development of intangible cultural heritage of traditional music in 2019.

First of all，from the perspective of the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage. This year we not only promoted the training of “individual” inheritorson a regular basis，but also conducted more training of “group” inheritors such as college students and primary and middle school students，through academic lectures，special training and campus exhibitions.

Secondly，from the perspective of the spread of intangible cultural heritage. This year through all levels of “go out” and “please come in” cultural exchanges；The cultural communication of “media” and “performance”；“Forum” and “elegant collection” cultural display，etc. It further promotes the cultural exchange and dissemination of specific intangible cultural heritage objects.

Thirdly，from the perspective of intangible cultural heritage research. This year，167 academic works and 154 academic papers were published. These academic achievements further discusses the ontological features and cultural connotations of specific intangible cultural heritage objects From the theoretical analysis，theoretical construction and law revealed.

With the coming of the 14th five-year plan，the protection，inheritance and development of intangible cultural heritage of traditional music are also facing new opportunities and challenges. It is necessary to realize the step from “quantity” to “quality” in the practical way of immaterial cultural heritage inheritance. It is necessary to realize the transformation from “representative communication” to “universal communication” in the cultural concept of “transmission of intangible cultural heritage”. It is necessary to turn from “music standard” to “intangible cultural heritage standard” in the academic concept of intangible cultural heritage research.
