Morin khuur Symphony: From Grassland to Palace

2023-08-03

Walking through the Mu Us Desert and across the Salawusu River, a "I Love China" Morin khuur Symphony Concert brought by the Uxin Banner Morin khuur Symphony Orchestra in Inner Mongolia came to Beijing recently and was performed at the China National Opera. What kind of performance effect will the Morin khuur, a Mongols musical instrument belonging to the grassland, play a leading role in the symphony? The performance hall of the China National Opera is ablaze with lights. The actors are sitting in the center of the stage wearing white Mongolian robes, green silk belts around their waists, and pointed black horse boots. Standing in front of him, it is the protagonist Morin khuur tonight. The Morin khuur has two strings, the head of which is carved into the shape of a horse head, the resonance box is trapezoidal, and the sound is mellow, low and euphemistic. From the appearance to the sound quality, it reflects the characteristics of Culture of Mongolia. "There are many Mongols characteristic percussion music on the stage, this is the riding boots drum, that is the milk bucket drum, the saddle drum, next to the horse pole soundboard, and Tovshuur..." Wu Dan, vice minister of the Publicity Department of Uxin Banner, introduced these characteristic ethnic instruments to the reporters one by one. The periphery of the stage, like most symphony orchestras, is equipped with piano, cello, Clarinet, Oboe and other orchestral instruments. The concert kicked off with the music "Majestic Wind on Horseback". As soon as the sound of the Morin khuur sounded, it was an ancient, desolate, beautiful, vigorous, long and unrestrained melody. Mongolian flutes, Fendunchaoer and Humai joined in one after another, and the audience could not help admiring: "It seems to have seen cattle and sheep grazing on the grassland.". As a type of string music, the dock qin can fully integrate into symphony. It can replace the position of the violin in the orchestra, and it is relatively low and broad, with a different charm from the violin. It can perform the same musical work with different temperament, "Facts show that Morin khuur can play an important role in symphony. We will spare no effort to promote Morin khuur symphony and bring national art to the world!" (Lixin News Agency)
