"flowers"

"Hua 'er", also known as "juvenile", is a folk song that spreads in Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai and Xinjiang Hui areas. It's actually a high-pitched folk song. In the duet of "Hua 'er", the man called the woman "Hua 'er" and the woman called the man "teenager", which gradually became the name of Hui folk songs, also collectively referred to as "Hua 'er".

"Hua 'er" came into being in the Ming Dynasty, and there are different opinions about its origin. Some people say that it is a special folk song formed under the influence of Mongolian and Tibetan folk songs; Some people think that it evolved from the homesickness songs of Hui people who moved in from other places. Some people think this is a folk song, but the immigrants who moved from Nanking to Zhou Tao in the early Ming Dynasty often use flowers as a metaphor. In a word, "Hua 'er" has become a major art form sung by Hui people in modern times. Huaer is divided into Qinghai Huaer, Hezhou Huaer and Ningxia Huaer by singing, and its source is Hezhou (now Linxia, Gansu).

Flower is rich in content, mostly love songs, and also shows the life of the Hui people. Generally, it is four or six sentences. The lyrics are improvisational and colloquial, and slang and common words are not avoided. The outstanding features of "Hua 'er" are vivid metaphors, beautiful words and strict rules. It has more than 65,438+0,000 melodies, rhythms and singing styles. As "Flower" was first produced in Shan Ye, and singers sang freely in an open and beautiful environment, its tune was loud and bold, rough and melodious, which showed the pursuit and desire of the Hui people for a happy life and pure love.

In Linxia area, where Hui people live in compact communities, people have gathered in beautiful mountainous areas for traditional "flower" parties at a fixed time every year for hundreds of years. The "Flower Show" in Lianhua Mountain and the "Flower Show" in Songmingyan on April 28th of the lunar calendar are famous for a long time. At the turn of spring and summer, the trees are lush and the flowers are blooming. At that time, singers will gather together to listen to songs, which is unprecedented. I can't sing this song! Singing is awkward.
