Confucius(孔子) is honored setting the tone for much traditional Chinese music for thousands of years. He (think) to be a music teacher and a (talent) musician who was able to play several instruments expertly. Perhaps for other people around the world, music was meant mainly for amusement. during the time of the Zhou Dynasty about 500 BC, music had an important role in making society stable.
How music was used and performed is expressed in several main Confucian books. Confucius taught that (educate) somebody, you should start with poems, emphasize ceremonies, and finish with music.
Musical knowledge was matter of higher learning. It is said that he thought of the six most important (subject) to study, ranking music higher than the other five necessary subjects like writing and mathematics.
Music was so important because the ideal society was to be governed by ritual (礼制) functions, but not by law. In a culture people function according to ritual, music is used to help govern them. So music wasn't really (entertain), but a means for musicians to accomplish political and social goals. Music is (eventual) a means for social happiness.
