When did the symphony first flow into China?

China's symphonic music creation began in the 1920s. Huang Zi (1904- 1938) became the founder of China's symphony creation with his symphonic overtures Nostalgia and Fantasia of Urban Scenery.

Xian Xinghai, a people's musician, has made outstanding contributions to the development of symphony creation in China with his works with distinctive national style and ardent patriotic feelings.

From the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) to the Cultural Revolution, a large number of young and middle-aged musicians trained by the Party, together with the older generation of composers, created a large number of symphony works, including War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression Symphony, Ding Shande's Long March Symphony, Luo's Second Symphony, and Shi Yongkang's symphonic poem The Story of the Yellow Crane.

After the Cultural Revolution, symphonic music was fully revived, and a large number of young composers emerged one after another. On the one hand, they insisted on the nationalization direction of symphony creation, and at the same time, with the help of the wave of reform and opening up and concept renewal, they boldly absorbed and borrowed the writing skills of western symphony creation, including modern symphony creation, and wrote a number of symphonic music works with high artistic standards, such as Zhang Qianyi's "Northern Forest" and Liu Dunnan's "Mountain Forest".
