Music majors in Colleges and universities play an irreplaceable role in cultivating excellent music talents and promoting the development of China's music industry. In the process of deepening the implementation of University reform, the education reform of music specialty in Colleges and universities is also in full swing, which brings new opportunities for students to develop, and also puts forward high requirements for teachers to optimize and adjust music specialty courses. The rationality and validity of music curriculum directly affect the education effect of music specialty and the training effect of music talents. Therefore, in order to carry out the reform of music education, we need to start with optimizing the professional curriculum, and pay attention to keeping pace with the times in the curriculum arrangement. It should not only insist on innovation, but also pay attention to the inheritance of folk music and art. We should combine inheritance with innovation, improve the establishment of music majors in Colleges and universities, and enhance the effectiveness of music education reform in Colleges and universities.
