The beautiful Miao mountain : a contemporary music creation from Miao music culture in Guizhou
Abstract:
"The Beautiful Miao Mountain" is based on the Feige tune (Flying song), the Feige of the Miao ethnic group in southeastern (Qiandongnan) Guizhou. It is a folk song with the characteristics of the Miao people in Guizhou with a long history. They live in the mountains, and singing is one of their daily communication, disseminating information, and expressing emotions. Because the two sides of the singing sing opposite each other across the mountain, the voice is soft and inaudible unless shouting. Let the other party hear the singing content, so the "Feige" of the Miao people is sung with an authentic voice, has solid penetrating power, and is more infectious, was born. In "The Beautiful Miao Mountain", the violin vividly imitates the twists and turns of the human voice and the natural sounds of insects and birds in the early morning of Miaoling. It uses bright and cheerful Feige to describe the beauty of Miao Village in the early morning. It expresses the happy life scene of the Miao people. Using the violin to play the Miao Feige represents the human voice, a new fusion of national folk music and Western musical instruments, and an innovative form of contemporary Miao culture, which can improve the social awareness of national folk music. Another innovative performance of Miao music will also better promote the development of Miao music in Guizhou.
