[Explanation] "It's a noisy city, and the flute is a shengren." Since ancient times, Chengdu has been a famous music capital with many silk tubes and a glamorous atmosphere. In 2019, this ancient historical and cultural city opened a new chapter in building the "Music City". Wangjiang Road, Wuhou District, Chengdu, therefore, has drawn a blueprint for the construction of an "international music community", using the "window + music" model to convey music culture and create a deeper musical atmosphere.

  It is understood that the Twelve Music Micro Museum project was officially launched at the end of 2018, and the "leading" musical instrument sales stores in the jurisdiction were selected for the main purpose of improving the people's music literacy, disseminating knowledge of music theory and music culture.

  One of the 12 selected by us has its own characteristics, that is, "one museum, one characteristic". The second requirement is that either you belong to a brand that is a very professional and authoritative top brand, or you have a very deep background in music teaching and instrument teaching, or you have a deep story with this neighborhood. Our original intention was to open up the "passage between Yangchun Baixue and the Lower Liba". In fact, with this "passage", it will gradually become the atmosphere of the city's music capital in one go.

  [Explanation] In addition, the Twelve Music Museum upholds the principle of music without borders. In addition to choosing folk music, it also gathers Western music resources in its jurisdiction to show the public the dialogue between Chinese and Western musical instruments and Chinese and Western civilizations in a harmonious state. In the eyes of Fei Le Violin Museum curator, Yan Fei, due to the people's inherent concept of "noble and glamorous" Western musical instruments, many people often dare not touch and understand classical music because of the "high threshold". Nowadays, more and more people are willing to try to understand and even start to learn Western music.

  We want to use the most direct way to communicate some good ideas and some concepts about art and the violin itself with the masses. In the past, everyone looked around at the door, (thought) this place is very beautiful, but there is no telling to come in. Nowadays, many people think this is very simple, so they come in and visit. On weekends, I would like to come and take a look during the break, and I would like to come in when I see this is a museum. In fact, it's just "soaking", as I just said, there are a lot of (people) having fun.

  [Explanation] For traditional musical instruments, although Chinese music and folk music have a long history, they lack popularity. Yayun Qinzheng Guqin teacher Ma Yunfei introduced that before joining the micro-museum cluster, they had also carried out public welfare activities aimed at the popularization of traditional folk musical instruments, but they had little effect due to "weakness and weakness".

  After this amount of popularity, everyone will become more refined. We used to "do it alone". If the platform is small, the recognition is low and the promotion is not enough. Now after the establishment of the micro-museum, the platform is broad, and then we promote it. The people are right. Our recognition is even higher, which facilitates our publicity and promotion. We hope that more traditional musical instruments and more national musical instruments can be added to this section to form a larger volume and promote our traditional culture on a larger scale.

  [Explanation] In addition to exhibitions, the museum will also regularly hold public welfare classes to teach music theory, different types of concerts, musical instrument exhibitions, and micro museum art festivals. In the Boya National Musical Instrument Micro Museum, the curator Zhou Yuzheng, his wife and daughter, played the popular song "Woman Flower" with erhu and guzheng. Zhou Yu introduced that family concerts have always been a tradition in their family, and after joining the micro-museum cluster, concerts have become a daily project.

  We will show our unique things, such as our folding erhu, as well as the organizers and sponsors of our museum. Our family life. Because we are a family enterprise, we say that a family will play together for everyone to appreciate. . Previously, our customers came here because they bought the erhu. Through the museum, friends who don’t want to learn music but are only interested in culture can also learn about our erhu, percussion and other musical instruments through the museum, from a cultural perspective (understand ).

  [Explanation] It is reported that since the start of the project, it has attracted tens of thousands of people to participate. Lin Huimin said that in the future, they will aim at diversified development and spread the project to other parts of Chengdu, attracting more types of music and instrumental music to join.
