The "modernity of themes" in the modern creation of traditional dance refers to the research on "modernity" based on the modern creation of traditional dance, focusing on "themes" and specifically analyzing the "modernity" of "themes" in dance creation. The former, "the modern creation of traditional dance," as mentioned by Wang Mei, focuses on traditional dance and refers to the modern creation that takes place with traditional dance as the object. The latter, "the modernity of themes," is the top priority of the authors research, due to two primary reasons: Firstly, themes occupy an important position in the creation of all art forms. Secondly, themes are essential in the creation of traditional dance, generally serving as the first step in dance creation activities. The author believes that themes exhibit modernity in the creation of traditional dance, so "the modernity of themes" is closely related to the modern creation of traditional dance. The core of "the modernity of themes" is to present the "present." Therefore, the author conducts self-practice and research on "the modernity of themes" based on "the modern creation of traditional dance."
