Abstract
Chinese music and dance art of the Zhou era is a strictly structured, regulated action performed during state ceremonies. Under the infl uence of the emerging ethical teaching – Confucianism, dances were divided into offi cial (cult and court) and common folk dances. One can trace the transformation of archaic traditions of previous eras in these dances – magnifi cent, bright forms of vestments and the exact ceremonial of performing rites. The main ritual was a sacrifi ce based on the veneration of ancestors.
