"Truth" as an aesthetic category is one of the important areas in the Chinese classical aesthetics.Itoriginated in Taoism, and its aesthetic culture in China have a significant impact for Thousands of years.The aesthetic consciousness of "truth" swept through the community in Ming dynasty and Qing dynasty.But there has been no systematic study on the current academic for the impact of the aestheticconsciousness of "truth" on the field of music. As a starting point and purpose of this article, I will studythe aesthetic consciousness of "truth" from three aspects, such as: The historical reasons and social factors;Li zhi, Feng Meng long and other literati's aesthetic manifestation of thought in the music; The meaning ofthe music aesthetics of "truth"for folk songs, opera and other art forms.In the late Ming dynasty, socio-economic developped rapidly and there have been the emergence ofthe seeds of capitalism. At the same time, the rule of the Ming dynasty increasingly decadent.TheUpper-class was extravagance and the political corruption was serious.In order to break through the Neodead dogma and old-fashioned stereotyped writing in "bagu", scholars have been trying to find a way out.As the same time, the minds of Wang Yang ming and his followers brought a great impact on theintellectual. In this context, from the literati to the marketplace people all have shown a tremendous changein the concept of life and aesthetic appeal, they all pursuing freedom, liberation and material comforts. Thefirst chapter, I use the method of historical analysis to analysis the historical background of the late Mingdynasty from four aspects, such as: economic, political, philosophy literature and buddhism of zen. In orderto explain that in specific historical conditions the aesthetic consciousness of "truth" to occur and grow upis an inevitable. And I will Use this as the premise of this study.Ancient China, the vast majority of people were illiteracy, so the literati directly lead the aesthetictaste changes of the society. From the middle of the Ming Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty, under theinfluence of the social environment and historical conditions, a group of literati share a common aesthetictaste and aesthetic ideas in fiction, drama, etc. such as Li kai xian Xu Wei Li Zhi Tang Xian zu Feng Menglong. They all attach great importance to nature, to advocate the truth. Their aesthetic ideas in music ismainly reflected in three aspects which were folk songs, opera and gu qin. The first of the second chapter, contributions made by Li Kai xianYuan Hong daoFeng Meng long to the improvement of the folk songs arehighly appraised in this thesis. Secondly, the drama theory of "bense"is divided into three stages, they arethe stage of development, the stage of improvement and the stage of stereotypes, and compare the dramatheory of "bense"of representative figures respectively, the diachronic research-based, and aid synchronicstudy, strive to clearly show the drama theory of "bense" of the development in the Ming Dynasty and QingDynasty. Lastly, through analysis the background and reasons of the aesthetic proposition"qinzhe, xinye"by Li Zhi, to approve its significant aesthetic value. It is not only a defy to the concept of "qinzhe, jinye",but also an open challenge to"si bu ru zhu, zhu bu ru rou".In the Ming dynasty and Qing dynasty, the cultural rights gradually down, many scholars to participatein folk songs, opera and other artistic creations."True" as an aesthetic standard by them, this naturally hadan impact on some of the art forms, especially in the folk songs, opera, Guqin which the scholars involvedin. In Chapter three, phenomenon analysis and causal analysis be used to analysis the music aesthetics of"truth"'s meaning for the folk songs, opera and other art forms. First of all, under the influence of the "true"aesthetic, folk songs demonstrated the feature of bi-directional parallel development, geographical featuresweakened, and a large number of folk songs of the prostitute theme emerge; Secondly, the legendary operashowed the feature of the language style popularized, endorsement body characteristics have been stressed,Creation of "feeling"-based,and showed a tendency of"soongsil","Fable"in theme. Even the Guqin Musicthat use"Calm" as the aesthetic ideal for thousands of years, appeared the change from "Impressionistic" to"realistic"and the phenomenon that express emotions and to inhibit the feelings coexist in performance.
