"Music Notes" believes that human voices and human feelings are identical. Because of this, the harmony of the sound in music can answer the harmony of people's feelings.
Music performance should be judged to be a middle voice, not too high, not too low, and the performance is natural and harmonious. The sound of music is harmonious, the effect it produces, the emotions that move, and also natural harmony. Therefore, "Music Notes" hopes to harmonize the originally discordant fathers and sons through the sound of music performance. This is the principle of the so-called music-making in the "Music Notes". This is the method and approach of music education expounded in "Music Notes".
