Characteristics of Mongolian and Kazak Songs

Because I am a Mongolian, let me talk about Mongolian music first. Goodbye ~ ~ ~

Mongolians: Because they live a nomadic life, they mainly live in folk songs and rap. They are all songs that reflect the life of herders. Mongolian folk songs can be divided into "Urtu" songs (that is, long-tune songs) and "Uhur" songs (that is, short-tune songs) according to their musical characteristics. The former has free rhythm, long breath, slow speed and wide range; The latter has a clear and regular rhythm and a brisk speed.

Mongolian folk music is basically composed of pentatonic scale, without semitones, and each tone in pentatonic scale can be used as the mode tonic. The modes with consonants and feathers as the main sounds are more common. The tune fluctuates greatly, often jumping six, seven, eight, nine and ten degrees; The vocal range is also very wide, and a song often contains 14 or 15 degrees, which gives people a feeling of being broad and unrestrained, and shows the uninhibited personality characteristics of Mongolian people. Singing is the separation of true and false sounds. Because of its high pitch, it is more sonorous, loud and changeable. When singing long notes, singers often add some decorative tones or decorative vibrato to create a lively mood or euphemistic style, and often end the sentence with a short slide after the long notes to make the tune soft and mellow. In addition, Mongolia also has a singing method called "Chaoer", namely "Humai". This method is to use the air in the mouth to vibrate the vocal cords to make * * * sounds, skillfully adjust the gap of the tip of the tongue, and choose different overtones from the pitch, thus forming a tune in the high-pitched area on the basis of bass continuity. In this way, you can hear two kinds of sounds clearly at the same time, that is, the tune in the high-pitched area and the persistent sound in the low-pitched area. But this method is mostly two-part singing, that is, several people sing a continuous bass and one person sings a treble.

There are roughly two rhythms of Mongolian folk music: one is relatively clear rhythm, and the common one is two beats or four beats. Although there are multiple beats, the essence is still two or four beats. The other rhythm is not obvious and the speed is slow. In fact, the beat of many music works cannot be divided by bar lines. Even if divided by a certain beat, the duration of each beat is not necessarily absolutely equal, and the distinction between light and heavy beats is not obvious. Therefore, it can be said that Mongolian folk songs are songs with strong melody and weak rhythm. Ma Touqin, Hobbes, Hu Si, Sanxian, Mongolian Guzheng, Mongolian Pipa, Hu Jia, Xinglong Sheng and flute are commonly used musical instruments in Mongolia. Mongolian instrumental music is characterized by softness and quietness. Ma Touqin is the most representative instrument among the above instruments, with deep and soft timbre, low volume and rich expressive force. In addition to accompanying folk songs and rap, it is also often used for solo and ensemble; It can not only play melodies, but also show the running and braying of horses. Mongolian instrumental music is mostly folk instrumental music.

Kazak: Music can be divided into folk songs and instrumental music (including dance music).

Folk songs can include "An", "Moon Order" and "Jill".

Ann: It refers to songs in general. Here refers to songs with beautiful and broad melody, fixed lyrics and song titles, and can also be divided into broad strings (pastoral), Barasian (fishing song), An Gei 'an (hunting song), Mahambattian (love song) and Dinaan (religious song). People call the singer who sings this kind of song "An Qi". Most of Ann's lyrics are composed of 1 1 syllables. There are two types of sections: type 344 and type 434. There are also two forms of singing: one is solo, lyrical and slow. The other is playing and singing, also known as Dong playing and singing.

Moon Order: All the folk songs with impromptu lyrics are called Moon Order. Its tunes are rich and simple, mostly composed of two phrases or an expanded single paragraph, often with the title of the song as the lining word. There are two main singing methods: "Ai Yiti Xi" and "Dastain".

Jill: Wedding songs. Also known as "Toygil". Kazaks have a set of wedding songs, which accompany the whole process of the wedding ceremony, including "hate wedding songs", "cry wedding songs", "persuade wedding songs", "send wedding songs" and "lift the veil".
