In the vast field of western classical music, opera and symphony, as two very representative art forms, carry rich cultural connotations and historical traditions. Although the two have obvious differences in expression techniques, constituent elements and performance forms, they rely on each other and blend with each other to create rich artistic expression. This paper takes the combination of opera and symphony as the research object. Firstly, it gives a basic introduction to opera and symphony by analyzing their historical development and structure, and then analyzes the combination of opera and symphony from four aspects: historical evolution, cultural background, music language and composition techniques. This paper makes a profound analysis of the interaction between opera and symphony from these four aspects, and finally comes to the conclusion that ---- when the two are fully combined, music works can convey a richer sensory and emotional experience to the audience, and show a more complete system of artistic works.
