The Relationship between Traditional Music in Xinjiang and the Geographical Environment of the Gobi Desert.

The natural environment and geographical environment provide the possibility for human survival and development and are also the premise of the formation of music culture. When studying the style characteristics and cultural types of music, more comprehensive and correct conclusions can be drawn only when considering various regional factors such as geography and topographic environment. If we want to explore the music of Xinjiang, we must understand the regional culture. The special geographical location of the Silk Road gives Xinjiang a foreign style compatible with Chinese and Western cultures. At the same time, because of the geographical environment of the Gobi Desert, the music style of Xinjiang is unique. This paper explores the relationship between the traditional music of Xinjiang and the Gobi desert, through the investigation and study of Xinjiang and various musical styles, which have certain reference significance for the study of the Chinese traditional culture.
