Abstract

Driven by today's international trend of multicultural education, the change from a single to a diversified music education curriculum in Chinese universities has become one of the most urgent issues to be improved and solved in Chinese music education. This paper analyzes the history of multicultural music education and its development status in Chinese college piano teaching. Finally, it puts forward new research suggestions to improve the quality of piano teaching in colleges and universities and promote the development of multicultural music education in China's colleges and universities.
