Overview of harvesting gongs and drums

Harvest gongs and drums is a unique percussion music of the Han nationality. Originated in Liu Zhuang, Ziyang, Pancun Town, mingguang city, it is an art form of Han folk percussion music, which is popular in Mingguang, Wuhe, Xuyi and Sihong counties in Anhui and Jiangsu provinces.

Harvest gongs and drums were bred and developed among the local Han people. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Cheng's father, the first generation inheritor of "Harvest Gong and Drum", worked as a drummer in a folk opera class. Because of the war, he went home to farm and suffered from famine. With his family, he beat gongs and drums all the way for a holiday.

After the war and famine, I returned to my hometown and began to arrange drum music, which became the original "bumper harvest gongs and drums" (Primary Five).

"Harvest gongs and drums" musicians are not limited, ranging from eight to a dozen to dozens.

Drum instruments include: drums, gongs, cymbals and cymbals, with unique drum notation and flexible performance forms.
