Anthem for a dying dynasty : the Qing national anthem through the eyes of a court musician

Abstract

The article concentrates on the criticism of the Chinese Qing dynasty's national anthem's musical score made by a prominent court musician, Cao Xinquan. The traditional Confucian view of music based upon principles expounded in the "Book of Rites" is quite familiar to Cao. The anthem, he argued, ignored those principles and hastened the demise of the dynasty.
