The pipa concerto "Spring and Autumn" and guzheng concerto "Man Jiang Hong" carry a strong sense of history. The Spring and Autumn Annals was written by Tang Jianping to commemorate the 2,545 years since the birth of Confucius. The introduction of the music material of "Three Lanes of Plum Blossom" in the work draws on the music thought of Confucianism, and expresses the spirit and life force of the Chinese nation with the shocking sound, and expresses the praise and worship of the present people for the time-honored Chinese civilization with the ancient metaphor. Composer He Zhanhao's "All Over the River Red" takes the tragic fate of Yue Fei, a national hero of the Song Dynasty, as the theme, and uses some tones of the traditional tune of the same name as the musical motive, variation, development and creation. The melody is solemn and dreary, pathetic and sad, which deeply portrays Yue Fei was harmed by a treacherous minister.

The transcendence of technology is excellent, reflecting the absolute strength of the famous musicians. Bamboo flute player Dai Ya's music is varied, relaxed, smooth and natural. His double spit is particularly clear and clean, with a strong graininess while ensuring full, coherent and elastic sound. The smooth kneading sound embellishment, such as the melody of the song, vividly mimics the sound of the bowl cavity played by the Banhu pressure string, and portrays the mood of the people of Qinchuan incisively and vividly. The passion of Qinqiang Opera flows freely between blowing and spitting, and you can see the vast scenery of Qinchuan for 800 miles. Banhu virtuoso Kang Kemi uses her finger glissando, bow pad and other bow fingers very carefully, especially her precise control of details.

It is the most authentic pursuit of musicians to combine music with music and music. Pipa player Zhang Qiang's sincere performance, rigor and tenderness combined with emotion and nature, injected soul into the music. He pays attention to the sense of space in music, the tone is elegant and transparent, the mood is interlocking, and the climax is repeated. His competitive playing with the percussion group of the orchestra vividly reflects the grand scene of a hundred schools of thought contenting and a great number of talents emerging in the Spring and Autumn Period. The answer to the string section and the wind section is a reflection of the integration of solo and concerto. The competitive playing and counterplay reveal the Confucian aesthetic pursuit of harmony and diversity. Guzheng player Wang Zhongshan's playing style has a magnificent and bold beauty, the sound has a strong explosive force, grief and anger sincere moving, full three-dimensional shape the hero's image. In the elaborate layout of his works, you can feel the ups and downs of emotional changes and tearless grief and anger. Allegro from the weak gradually stronger point, like a hero of steel clank from far to near pentium, the picture of the past bloody killing the enemy jumped on the paper. The sonorous sweep of the colorful passages will pull the beautiful thoughts back to the cruel reality, but also push the musical mood of the whole song to the climax. The trill of the recapitulation passages touches people's hearts and makes them grieved and tear-jerking. The song ends with an ambitious sweep, which, in one go, will give people endless financial grief.
