满族是我国北方主要游猎民族之一。清室入主中原后在与汉民族的融合中,其语言、礼仪、习俗以至信仰等都有相当大的变化。满族音乐大多也都淹没在中原文化的汪洋大海中。但是,考现存史料,“惟祭天于堂子祭神于坤宁宫犹能保存故俗”。这就意味着,从清宫廷祭祀音乐中,我们也许还能寻觅到满族音乐的芳踪。 Manchu is one of the main hunting nationalities in northern China. After the Qing dynasty entered the Central Plains, in the integration with the Han nationality, considerable changes have taken place in its language, manners, customs and beliefs. Most of Manchu music are also submerged in the sea of ​​Central Plains culture. However, examining the existing historical data, “but the sacrificial day in the temple to worship God at Kun Ning Palace can still save the ancient custom.” This means that we may still find traces of Manchu music from Qing court ritual music.
