Hua’er Music
华尔音乐
Hua'er is sung in the fields and mountains by different ethnic groups of people. Every spring, natives dressed in their unique costumes gather together to take part in the annual Hua'er Meet. Young men and women sing and woo each other with love songs. It usually starts with a young man’s initiation，and if the object of his interest responds by singing her admiration back to him, the song can last up to a few hours sometimes. The Hunter gathering is also a time when middle-aged and elderly people meet old friends to reminisce. But the ancient music, which originated from agricultural civilizations，has been severely damaged by industrialization in recent decades.
华尔是由不同族群的山野村人唱的歌。每到春天，当地人穿着他们独特的服装聚集在一起参加一年一度的华尔会议。青年男女唱情歌，吸引对方。它通常由一个年轻的男子开唱，如果他的歌被他后面感兴趣的倾慕者作出反应，有时这首歌可以持续长达几个小时。求偶聚会也是中年人和老年人见老朋友时常提起的回忆。但起源于农业文明的古乐，近几十年来已经严重被工业化破坏。
