In this paper, we conduct theoretical analysis on novel and innovative music education model based on multiple intelligences theory and new media. The theory of multiple intelligence education concept is to change too pay attention to the tendency of knowledge. The novelty of new media, not only in the form of new information carrier and communication channel, also include technological progress brings new propagation mode.
