Mongolia's unique musical instruments are

Speaking of Mongolian people, we will certainly be familiar with them. Mongolian is a minority in Northeast Asia, not only in China, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and other northern provinces, but also in a part of Russia. Many Mongolians, like Han nationality, are also a nation with a long history and have their own unique national culture and customs. Needless to say, ethnic minorities can sing and dance, and so can Mongolians. Bonfire party, Nadam and other entertainment activities are also the characteristics of Mongolia, and when it comes to what unique musical instruments Mongolia has, there are quite a few unique musical instruments in Mongolia.

The most famous ones are Ma Touqin, harmonica, Hu Si and Hobbes. Let's talk about Hu Si first. Hu Si is an ancient musical instrument often used by nomadic people in northern China. It is a bowstring instrument, which is popular not only in Inner Mongolia, but also in Shanxi, Shaanxi and Hebei. Hu Si is also divided into three types: high, medium and low. Mongols also call it Hull, and the second is Ma Touqin and Ma Touqin. After the death of a pony, he used the horse's bones as pillars, and then used tail hair as bowstring, and carved a horse's head according to the pony's appearance, so he was called Ma Touqin.

Ma Touqin also evolved from playing stringed instruments in the Tang and Song Dynasties. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, this kind of Ma Touqin was also very popular in folk and court bands. The third is the harmonica. Mongolian people have the habit of playing harmonica since ancient times, especially women. This instrument, Malik Touqin, was later incorporated into the court band, which shows its great influence. The fourth huqin, huqin, knows the northern region from its name.

The name Hu Qin appeared in the Yuan Dynasty. Huqin is soft and vigorous, with typical Mongolian flavor. At present, Huqin is still popular in many areas of Inner Mongolia. These are the popular musical instruments of the Mongols. If you are lucky enough to go to Inner Mongolia, you can also see these traditional folk arts.
