Innovation in the Application of the Orff Music Concept in the Mass Music Entertainment Experience Model

This paper explores the application of the Orff music concept in mass music entertainment. Orff music is an artistic form that is holistic, natural and closely connected to life. Its elemental nature encompasses multiple elements, breaking the excessive emphasis on traditional musical elements and returning to natural expression and perception. When applied to the mass entertainment music experience, it has the advantages of being simple to operate and highly improvisational, enabling people of different age groups to participate easily and enhancing interactive cooperation. Currently, the mass music entertainment experience model has limitations such as focusing mainly on listening, having a high participation threshold, and being monotonous in experience forms. The Orff music concept provides ideas for its innovation. For example, in the innovation of the experience integrating music and body rhythm, by setting up rhythm areas in large-scale activities, participants can improvise movements and feel the resonance of rhythm. In terms of instrument simplification, Orff's treatment of instruments lowers the threshold for creation and performance. It can also combine elements of Chinese traditional and ethnic minority music as well as modern technologies, such as virtual instruments and multimedia technologies, further expanding the boundaries of mass music entertainment and enriching the connotations of music experience and cultural inheritance.

Abstract

This paper explores the application of the Orff music concept in mass music entertainment. Orff music is an artistic form that is holistic, natural and closely connected to life. Its elemental nature encompasses multiple elements, breaking the excessive emphasis on traditional musical elements and returning to natural expression and perception. When applied to the mass entertainment music experience, it has the advantages of being simple to operate and highly improvisational, enabling people of different age groups to participate easily and enhancing interactive cooperation. Currently, the mass music entertainment experience model has limitations such as focusing mainly on listening, having a high participation threshold, and being monotonous in experience forms. The Orff music concept provides ideas for its innovation. For example, in the innovation of the experience integrating music and body rhythm, by setting up rhythm areas in large-scale activities, participants can improvise movements and feel the resonance of rhythm. In terms of instrument simplification, Orff's treatment of instruments lowers the threshold for creation and performance. It can also combine elements of Chinese traditional and ethnic minority music as well as modern technologies, such as virtual instruments and multimedia technologies, further expanding the boundaries of mass music entertainment and enriching the connotations of music experience and cultural inheritance.
