Recently, some netizens left messages on the leadership message board of People's Daily Online, suggesting that a song collection activity be launched in the name of the Heilongjiang Provincial Government. Netizens said that Harbin, as a "city of music", can learn from the song "Chengdu" to create a city song with the theme of "Harbin". Classic songs can be sung for a long time and can even become the city song of Harbin and the provincial song of Heilongjiang.
Harbin is the sixth city in the world to be awarded the title of "City of Music" by the United Nations, and the only one in Asia. In recent years, the Harbin Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have attached great importance to the construction of a "music city", deeply exploring the value of this resource, practicing both "soft and hard", continuing to amplify the value of the "Harbin" brand, and promoting the integration of culture and tourism with "music +" Breaking the circle of development supports Heilongjiang’s strategy of strengthening the province through culture and helps the industrial transformation and comprehensive revitalization of Northeast China. In 2023, Harbin also became the first in China to legislate August 6 every year as "Harbin Music Day" to continuously enhance the influence and attraction of the "City of Music". According to reports, Harbin will launch various performances and competitions every year on Music Day, and open the Grand Theater, Concert Hall, etc. to free admissions, making "Harbin Music Day" a city anniversary with unique artistic symbols.
