Cultural characteristics

Gadamer has existed for more than half a century. Gadamer was first sung as a folk song, and then gradually formed a long narrative poem summarizing the whole process of Gadamer's uprising. The long narrative folk song is a kind of folk song form that rises in the semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral areas in eastern Inner Mongolia. Generally, folk artists compose and sing, accompanied by Hu Si or Chaoerqin, and sing by themselves. They are characterized by complex plots and huge structures.

Gadamer's lyrics are very long, and modern people often sing four lyrics translated by composer Amber. Every lyric is two sentences. The first sentence uses the method of Bixing to set off the hero image with the flying of the swan goose from south to north, which is familiar to Mongolians. The next sentence points directly to the theme, and expresses the praise and memory of the broad masses of the people to the hero with straightforward and vigorous sentences.
