Abstract

The issue of copyright ambiguity in stage play art has been effectively controlled, and significant strides have been made in the legal framework surrounding the copyright of musicals. However, the problem of copyright infringement in musicals remains unresolved. During the Two Sessions, a proposal was submitted by Jiang Shengnan, a well-known screenwriter and member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, advocating for the enhanced protection of screenwriters’ right of authorship. The proposal is aimed at improving the signature copyright of screenwriters and other groups. The copyright in the musical field mainly involves scripts, dances and music. These copyright fields are complex, and the phenomenon of “literary poaching” caused by difficulties in safeguarding rights and legal loopholes still exists. The existing legislation that permits the concept of “free performance” contains certain flaws. The purpose of this paper is to sort out the development course and influence of the copyright in the history of musical development in China from the perspective of dialectical philosophy, promote the construction of the copyright system of musical, and provide an international forward-looking discussion for the copyright development in this field.
