Unlike its Western counterpart, Chinese poetry has a more important role in Chinese literary history, especially classical Chinese poetry, which dominated literature as well as art throughout history. However, when making an intratextual analysis of this genre, we find the generic roots of classical Chinese poetry have stemmed from music. The studies of the dichotomous nature of Chinese poetry and music are an interdisciplinary domain that needs further investigation into the structures, forms and subjective matter in the interrelationship of music and poetry. However, for studies in the interdisciplinary areas of the music and poetic works, we are inclined to observe from poetic perspectives, since extant records of classical Chinese music are rare. The historical and intratextual perspectives of the Music Bureau poetry, Song Lyric and Various Tunes and Modes posit an atlas for the interdisciplinary domain between music and poetry.
