With the publication of Ye Bohe&amp;rsquo;&amp;nbsp;s&amp;nbsp;History of Chinese Music&amp;nbsp;in 1922,&amp;nbsp;systematic research on ancient Chinese music history was officially initiated. A large number of works subsequently emerged, covering&amp;nbsp;areas such as music theory, organology, archaeology, and related disciplines. With the development of the times and the deepening of scholarly inquiry, a relatively mature research system has gradually formed. Among these, the study of musical institutions constitutes a significant branch within the historiography of music.</abstract><keywords>musical institutions,Music Bureau (Yuefu), Dynastic history, general history</keywords></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>[1] Ye BH, 1922, History of Chinese Music.
