The "folk characteristics" of traditional folk music in China has changed gradually and showed various forms indifferent environment. From the living area, manifestation and content, the current situation of Han' s folk music can be divided into the following categories: dissolved, changing, reserved. In the first category, traditional folk music has disappeared or has been absorbed into city life. In the developed countryside where urbanization is successful, traditional music can be seldom seen. In the second category, affected by modern social life, traditional folk music has changed and innovated on the base of tradition, and to some degree, it has drifted off the traditional course and lost its original forms and content. In the third category, the traditional folk music inherits its not promising, the current situation is somewhat satisfactory. Of course, this division is comparative. As they are very closely related to each other, it is unrealistic to completely separate them.The "Horse-Light" in Wuhu, Anhui province is an example of the category of changing. Great changes have taken place in the manifestation of "Horse-Light" in recent years: the performance process simplifies continuously; accompaniment instruments decreases in number; the blockade of feudalism has been broken, which can be proved by the scene that women and men perform together on the same stage, while the past women were even forbidden to enter the "hall of the God of Light" . Based on many investigations, this paper gives a comprehensive description of the living area, history development, organizational forms, performance process and musical characteristics of "Horse-Light" in the south of Anhui.The development of folk music is limited by multiple factors, among which the social shift and the changes caused by it are the objective ones and the changes in the farmers' mind and the shift of sociology are the subjective. As China is now in the process of social shift, modernization of the countryside, the changes in the relationships among farmers and the changes in farmers' cultural life become the objective factors that affect the development of folk music. At the same time, the changes of social psychology also affect the development of folk music form the angles of personal psychological need, imitation and public opinions, socialization, the continuation of socialization and the special groups.
