Playing music during a sword-fighting scene?

Try this in the society and culture section. This has nothing to do with martial arts.

Definelty we need to know more about life and you.

So I'm here watching Hero, the one that stars Jet Li, and he's fighting one of the criminals, during the fight an old blind musician stops playing and is shown leaving the scene. They stopped battle to ask him to play more music. I've noticed this in many Anime, movies or shows that have asian culture in them. Is this a tradition, or just something most directors like to add in?
