Abstract: The thought of “music education” is an important content of Confucian aesthetic education. As the first systematic article of music theory in ancient China, “Li Ji • Music Ji” is also a must-read classic for exploring Confucian music education. “Li Ji • Music Ji” systematically expounds the relationship between “sound”, “sound” and “music”, and regards “music” as a moral “Deyin” closely related to people’s temperament. It provides a theoretical basis for the occurrence of “music education” from the origin of “music”, and elaborates the functions of “music education” from the perspectives of “governing the heart” and “knowing politics”. It also points to the spirit of “harmony”, the ideal of Confucian music teaching.
