Arts Studies and Criticism

Under the trend of globalization, the mutual penetration and coordinated development of Chinese and Western cultural elements are an important trend in the innovation and development of music. After jazz entered China, Chinese composers integrated it with Chinese elements, forming a unique and infectious artistic form. However, according to a CNKI search, no researcher has yet achieved the jazz-style transformation of Hakka folk songs. In view of this, this paper will use the piano as a carrier to analyze the jazz-style transformation and piano integration path of Hakka folk songs empowered by AI, hoping to provide some reference and inspiration for relevant researchers or practitioners.
