The Wudang Taoist music is an important part of classical Chinese and, throughout history, absorbed the essence of other religious musical forms and the essence of folk music.
It contains powerful elements of classical Ba-shu music and the solemnity and elegance of palace music, and is rich in religious meaning and classical charm.
Through years of development, it has gained unique individuality, diversity, continuity, and conservatism.
Its melody and mysterious aesthetics can help a person cultivate feelings and purify the mind and calm the heart.
