Welcome by the villagers. This reflects the current strong demand for higher quality spiritual and cultural life in rural areas. Music, as a common language, has a broad mass base and fertile growth soil in rural areas, and can play a greater role in enriching cultural life and filling the spiritual world. To empower rural revitalization with music, it is necessary to answer the question of "what kind of music culture is needed in rural areas". Therefore, it is necessary to conduct investigations and research to comprehensively understand the spiritual needs of villagers, the needs of cultural revitalization, and the needs of rural development. Only in this way, whether it is "sending culture" or "planting culture", can we truly "send" and "plant" it to the hearts of the villagers. Paying attention to the spiritual needs of villagers is the foundation. With the improvement of living standards and education level, people's aesthetic ability and level continue to improve. People's longing for a better life also includes their diverse needs for art. In the process of empowering rural revitalization with music, in addition to activating local cultural resources, it is also necessary to vigorously promote the introduction of elegant art into the countryside, so that villagers can receive spiritual satisfaction and pleasure through the influence of elegant music. Enriching the spiritual life of the people with elegant music and enhancing aesthetic taste, there is great room and potential for college teachers and students to participate in the construction of art villages. Focusing on the need for cultural revitalization is crucial. Every village has its unique cultural resources. We should attach importance to the music advantages and traditions of the village itself, fully utilize its original characteristics to carry out the inheritance and innovation of excellent traditional culture, and in this process, improve the overall artistic literacy of the villagers, thereby cultivating local artists and farmer artists. For example, the village song in Jiangshan City, Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, "Sing thyself, sing thyself", has become a link and bridge connecting the beautiful countryside, showcasing the cultural power of the vast fields. Focusing on the needs of rural development is the key. Music empowers rural revitalization by stimulating rural vitality in the form of "art+", achieving the value transformation and integration reconstruction of rural resources. Its focus is on improving quality and efficiency, promoting industrial development, making rural areas richer and stronger, and giving villagers a sense of gain and happiness. We need to drive and assist rural transformation through music creation activities, music festivals, and the creation of music characteristic towns, injecting cultural added value into the integration of culture and tourism, and injecting new impetus into rural development. In short, music empowering rural revitalization should always pay attention to "what kind of music culture is needed in the countryside". While meeting the diverse music and cultural needs of the masses, the "bonsai" of art rural construction should gradually become a "landscape", promoting the revitalization of rural industries and culture, and ultimately achieving material and spiritual prosperity.
