Xi’an Drum Music (Guyue) has roots dating back to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It embodies the elegance of court music as well as the richness and grandeur of Tang and Song music. In recognition of its cultural significance, Xi’an Guyue was designated one of the China’s first national intangible cultural heritage items in 2006, and was inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2009. The Music Office will curate a series of ‘Xi’an Guyue’ exhibitions to introduce the development, styles, musical instruments and performance formats of Xi’an Guyue. The exhibition will be roved at various public libraries.
