Since the 1920s,bel canto in western art has been rapidly promoted and developed in China,which has had a huge impact on the aesthetic concept of the public,and has also brought revolutionary changes to China's vocal music art,and formed a"struggle between the domestic and foreign vocal music arts"in the middle of the last century.The long history of the struggle has had a certain impact on the development of China's vocal music field,which has made the improvement of China's vocal music level slow for a long time.Until the Reform and Opening Up,after the introduction of the theoretical knowledge and performance skills of the western bel canto school,the focus of the debate gradually changed,and began to tend to explore the substantive content with deep characteristics,and the understanding of bel canto singing was more objective.This paper analyzes the development of bel canto after it was introduced into China,discusses the specific relationship between music and culture from the perspective of craft aesthetics,and emphasizes that in the process of cultural construction,we need to actively promote diversified development based on the principle of taking ourselves as the main factor,and fully apply theoretical knowledge to practice through combination and absorption.
