On October 10, the experimental concert along with the launch of the “Qian·Yue” Music Intelligence Agent, was held at the concert hall of the School of Arts, Renmin University of China.
Lin Shangli, president of RUC, praised the students’ spirit of innovation and broad vision. He encouraged them to make full use of artificial intelligence to empower musical creation and expand the boundaries of artistic expression; to draw deeply from the rich heritage of Chinese ethnic music while actively integrating Western musical forms and creative concepts; and to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of China’s fine traditional culture.
At the launch event, Yang Chang and Zhao Zilu, undergraduate students from the Class of 2023 at the School of Arts, presented the Qian·Yue project on behalf of the development team, introducing its origins, core architecture, operating logic, and future prospects. Through targeted training of professional models, an integrated plugin system, and multi-level workflows, Qian·Yue functions as a music collaboration hub that combines diverse modes of thinking with high-efficiency execution. It not only enables intelligent score translation and cross-cultural interpretation of musical terminology, but also improves decision-making quality and practical collaboration in real concert settings. Qian·Yue represents an innovative, youth-led exploration of new models for musical collaboration. By leveraging artificial intelligence, it builds bridges across different musical forms and instrumental traditions, allowing every musical language to be understood and integrated.
As part of the university student art troupe’s autumn performance season, the concert brought together students alongside young composers and performers. Through diverse formats such as sextets, concertos, and vocal ensembles, the performers interpreted the theme of dialogue and integration between Chinese and Western music, using art—empowered by AI—as a medium to practice mutual learning and exchange among civilizations.
