I don't think keep copying old Chinese and new Western can be called progress. When 2010 arrives visitors will ask: "Show me what new arts and music you have developed. Now I only see ancient Chinese and pirated Western". Where would you take people to see new Chinese New Age Music, Experimental Jazz, Chinese World music, Chinese Folk, Folk Rock, Progressive, Heavy Metal, etc. Titles might be Western but the actual acts should be clearly Chinese.</p>
