A piece of the folk song, in the process of spreading to the different regions, will be constantly changing and creating a number of the variants of the folk songs, and these songs ＂with changes in the similarities＂ together constitute the songs of the ＂variants of the same tune＂. However, what musical elements are ＂the same＂ in the songs of the ＂variants of the same tune＂？ What musical elements have been changed？ What are the reasons for the ＂similarities＂ and the ＂changes＂？ These are the questions worth considering. To answer these questions, it is necessary to deeply explore the aesthetic and cultural psychologies of the folk groups in the areas of the spread of the folk songs. Therefore, this paper will select the typical folk songs of the ＂variants of the same tune＂ of＂For friends＂, ＂Hitting the wild jujube＂, and ＂Pouch Embroidering＂ in the Shanxi area as an example to carry out the analysis of the music and art and sort out the evolutionary tracks, and point out the feasibility to reveal the regional people＇s aesthetic and cultural psychologies with the help of the research on the folk songs of the ＂variants of the same tune＂ and the potential significance in the promotion of the creation of the current national folk music.展开更多
