Abstract

Under the dual background of rural cultural revitalization and the protection of intangible cultural heritage of ethnic minorities, the traditional ritual music of ethnic minorities is not only an artistic carrier, but also a living educational resource carrying ethnic memory, ethical norms and life values. The funeral lusheng music of the Mengdou branch of the Miao nationality in Houshan Township, northern Guizhou, integrates ethnic history, folk beliefs and artistic expression, with unique educational connotations. Based on field investigation, literature research and case analysis, this paper sorts out the cultural characteristics of the music, explores its values of life education, ethical education, cultural identity and rural aesthetic education, and analyzes the dilemmas such as the fault of inheritance subjects, the absence of school education, the weakening of cultural ecology and the insufficient guarantee mechanism. This paper puts forward inheritance paths from four aspects: school-based curriculum, collaboration of inheritors, home-school-community linkage and policy support, providing a reference for integrating rural intangible cultural heritage into the education system and protecting the root of national culture.
