About
Chinese art-song has a relatively recent history, under the influence of Western music at the beginning of the present century, the effect of the so-called Movement of 4 May. On the other hand, the setting of poems to music according to traditional rules of Chinese composition has a long history, based always rather on the Chinese custom of respect for ancient modes of art than on the spirit of creative originality and innovation that has been a feature of Western art.
