A Study on the Rationalism of the Humanism Thought in Confucius’ Music Education

This study is anchored in contemporary humanism and rationalism theories, delving into the rationalist expressions within Confucian music education and its human-centric value significance. It aims to provide insights and references for the development and practice of modern music education. Utilizing document analysis and historical research methods, this paper thoroughly discusses the rationalism in Confucius's music aesthetics, music teaching, and ethical thoughts from a humanistic perspective, pioneering a new viewpoint for understanding Confucian music education. It particularly emphasizes its critical contribution to enhancing contemporary music education practice, especially in achieving the goal of holistic human development. The research notes that, despite the limitations encountered by Confucian music education ideas due to their specific socio-cultural roots in addressing contemporary issues, their profound insights into the relationship between sensibility and rationality in human nature, along with the concept of interdisciplinary talent cultivation, offer unique Eastern wisdom for the development of global cultural education.
