Brief introduction of Mongolian Zhuo Rajal dance

Listen to the sound.

Generally speaking, Jiaolaha dance is mainly male dance, which is vigorous and powerful. It imitates the walking, running, jumping, jumping and other postures of the dark horse, and shows a bold and unrestrained style in the rhythm of whole body relaxation. Women's movements are graceful, stretching, lively and subtle.

Jiaolaha fever can be performed at large parties, small yurts and weddings. You can dance solo, dance in pairs, or perform in groups. The method of dancing can also vary from person to person and from place to place. According to the atmosphere and environment at that time, there were relaxed and pleasant performances, strong performances and humorous performances, thus obtaining various artistic effects. After grazing, Mongolians often dance Laha fever, sing and dance with Tobxiuer's piano to show their brave spirit and heroic character.

Jiaolaha is accompanied by music of the same name. This kind of music has a strong sense of rhythm, lively and lively, and the melody is like a galloping horse on the grassland. Playing by the Mongolian traditional musical instrument Tobxiuer, according to the rhythm of the dance, similar local characteristics and personal playing skills are formed.

Jiaolaha fever can improvise anytime and anywhere, and there is no need for special costumes and props when improvising.

First, "Jiao Lagar" is one of the twelve melodies of Tobxiuer, a traditional Mongolian musical instrument in Xinjiang. Tobxiuer's twelve melodies are Sawuddin, Jiao Lagar, capra Wild Goat in Geri, Yeyesu, Left-handed Sol, Araga in Jujube, Bala kinkel, Agorsor Sol and so on. With the beat of Tobxiuer, people's dance movements are constantly changing. Performers should cooperate with Tobxiuer's melody, hand movements should simulate all things in nature, and dancers' modality also changes with the timbre of musical instruments. Unlike the other eleven dances, "Jiaolaha Dance" can only be performed by men, because "Jiaolaha Dance" is closely related to horses. My childhood was spent under the guidance of my relatives in a lively atmosphere of singing and dancing.

2. Jiaolahar Dance, one of the traditional Mongolian folk dances in Xinjiang, was mistaken for Kazak dance for the following reasons: 15 years ago, Agar (female, Mongolian, married to Kazak, now from Zhaosu County), a famous dancer of Yili Kazak Autonomous Prefecture, directly adapted Jiaolahar Dance into a "black horse walking" dance and taught it to Kazakh actors for originality. After the performance of "Dark Horse Walking", it was loved by the audience and spread rapidly among Kazakhs. How could Mongolian dancers have predicted such a result? Twenty years ago, there was no dance called "Dark Horse Walking" among Kazakhs. Someone once interviewed Kazakh people in their sixties and seventies, and they all frankly replied: "This dance is a Mongolian folk dance".

Three, nearly twenty years ago, there was no Rajar dance in Kazakhstan, and there was no dark horse dance in Mongolian Kazaks. After studying in Xinjiang, Mongolian dark horse dance spread to Kazakhstan and Mongolian Kazak in the form of cultural exchange, but scholars in Kazakhstan denied that it was a traditional Kazakh dance!

Fourth, a long time ago, the Mongolian people of the older generation in Xinjiang generally danced the traditional dark horse dance, which was gradually forgotten because of the elimination of the "four seniors" and other societies during the Cultural Revolution. One of Tobxiuer's twelve melodies, "Sawuerding", has been passed down intact by the Mongols in Bazhou, but some Mongolians are lucky enough to pass on the dark horse dance and dark horse dance in Yuanzhou.

The older Kazakhs can't dance this kind of dance, but the new young people can. On the contrary, the Mongolian people of the older generation can basically dance in the original form.
