The thought of rites and music began in the Western Zhou Dynasty and formed in the period of Spring and Autumn and Warring States. As an important component of Chinese tradi-tional Confucian culture, it embodies the idea of education, the method of cultivation and the essence of governing a country based on the combination of rites and music. Rite emphasizes on the constraint by etiquette and system and the regulation of daily behaviors, while music focuses on the edification of inner spirit and the recognition of values. The thought of rites and music merges moral cognition, emotional experience and value recogni-tion together, making values internalize in mind and externalize in behavior, and organically unifying knowledge, emotion, sense and action, thus cultivating perfect personality. Therefore, it is of important referential significance for the promotion of core social-ist values in contemporary colleges and universities combined with Chinese excellent cultural traditions.%礼乐思想发轫于西周,形成于春秋战国,是中国传统儒家文化的重要组成部分,其中蕴含着礼乐结合的育人之道、教化之方、治国之要."乐由中出,礼自外作",礼教侧重外在礼仪制度的约束、日常行为的规范,乐教强调内在精神的熏陶、价值理念的体认.礼乐思想将道德认知、情感体验与价值认同相互渗透,使价值理念内化于心、外化于行,知、情、意、行有机统一,从而培育健全人格,对当代高校结合中国优秀文化传统弘扬社会主义核心价值观有着重要的借鉴意义.
