Music of an Age of Good Order
?
指太平時代的音樂。儒家認(rèn)為，音樂與社會政治相互聯(lián)通，音樂能反映一個國家的政治盛衰得失及社會風(fēng)俗的變化。樂教能促使政治清明，社會秩序穩(wěn)定；反過來，太平時代政治開明、和美，其音樂、詩歌作品一定充滿祥和歡樂。“治世之音”也被用來指《詩經(jīng)》中的某些美頌之作。

Confucian scholars believed that music interacts with both society and its political evolution; it also reflects the rise and decline of a state's political strength and changes of social customs. Music education fosters good governance and social stability. In an age of peace and stability with enlightened governance and harmony, its music and poetry are characterized by serenity and joyfulness. "Music of an age of good order" also refers to some eulogies in?The Book of Songs.

大凡音樂都產(chǎn)生于人的內(nèi)心。情感在心中激蕩，所以表現(xiàn)為各種聲音。聲音組合成曲調(diào)，就叫做音樂。所以，太平時代的音樂祥和歡樂，這是因為政治寬和的緣故。

All music is born in people's minds. One's stirring emotion is manifested in sounds. When these sounds are arranged into tunes, they constitute musical notes. Hence, the music in time of peace indicates serenity and happiness because of good governance. (The Book of Rites)
