Introduction to Daur folk song (Daur zandal)

Declaration area or unit: Molidawa Daur Autonomous Banner, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region

Daur means "pioneer". Daur mainly live in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and Heilongjiang Province, and a few live in Tacheng city of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Daur folk music has many forms, such as folk songs, counterpart songs and dance lyrics. It is characterized by passionate tone, euphemism and variety, distinct rhythm and strict rhythm.

Zaendale is the main form of Daur folk songs, which mainly spread in Nierji Town, tengke town and aera town of Molidawa Daur Autonomous Banner in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Zaendale was born in a distant time. According to historical records, people were deeply infected in the face of nature in production and labor at that time. They sang moving tunes to express their emotions, eliminate fatigue and cheer up their spirits, thus forming zaendale.

Zandaledo's performance of historical events, production and living conditions, national heroic deeds and love stories can be divided into lyric and narrative, including pastoral songs, hunting songs, fishing songs, toast songs, love songs, wedding songs, rehearsal songs, lullaby and other forms. His singing includes solo and duet, and most of them are duets with one question and one answer. Zandale can be divided into two types: lyric and non Lyric. Zandale with lyric, such as sweetheart and demorigen, has rich tunes and changeable structures. There are many lining words of "Na ye, Na Ye" in his words and sentences. Most of zandale without lyric is emotional and impromptu chanting. Generally, there are only lining words of "Na ye, Na Ye" in his words and sentences.

Zaendale's melodies are beautiful, high pitched and impromptu. His representative works include sweetheart, demorigen, uqigenwuyin, orphan suffering, etc. Zandal is the remains of ancient Daur folk music, which plays an important role in the study of Daur traditional folk music, history and culture, local customs and so on. At present, with the development of society, the social basis for the survival and development of zaendale has changed. People's indifference to the existing folk art has led to the fact that zaendale has no successors and is on the verge of danger. It is urgent to formulate a plan for rescue and protection.
