Organized by the Library, the School of Music and the School of Psychology, the second phase of "Monthly Music at SCNU" focuses on "psychology" and "work" in response to International Labor Day on May 1. Three scholars of the School of Psychology were invited to talk about the integration of psychology and music. Five performers from the School of Music and the School of Psychology explored the relationships between work and aesthetics, growth of the mindset, the meaning of life, absent-mindedness, and the "three joys in life" (playing piano, flute, and viola).

"Monthly Music at SCNU" kicked off on March 17 this year with the music salon "Music with Principal's Book List". It is a cross-campus and cross-disciplinary aesthetic education promotion program launched by the Library and the School of Music of SCNU. A series of music salons with different disciplinary themes are held on the Shipai campus every last Friday of the month.
The activity can be seen as a prism, reflecting the beauty of different disciplines at the university, and inspiring teachers and students to discover the uniqueness of each discipline. SCNU hopes to promote mutual learning and communication by offering opportunities for individuals to encounter different disciplines through the universal language of music.
