Hulusi, a characteristic musical instrument of Dai nationality, is a reed instrument, which can continuously emit five-degree intervals, with beautiful, soft, mellow and euphemistic tone. In the bamboo forest or Dai bamboo house on a moonlit night, it can give people a subtle and hazy aesthetic feeling, and the vibrato blown out is as elegant and gentle as trembling silk. Shi Guangnan, a famous composer, created the music "Bambusa in the Moonlight", which made Hulusi music popular all over the country.
