The legacy of banquet music
Qinghai Hui people's "banquet songs" are listed as national intangible cultural heritage.

Menyuan Hui Autonomous County in Qinghai Province, known as Shangri-La on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, is deeply loved by the local Hui people as a "banquet song". The successful declaration of China's national intangible cultural heritage has become another highlight of Qinghai's characteristic national culture.

Banquet songs, also known as family songs, are widely spread in Qinghai, Gansu, Ningxia and other provinces, and are one of the Hui folk songs. Some Hui people in Northwest China call it a "feast" to hold a wedding or a happy event, and "eat a wedding banquet" to attend the wedding and see off the relatives. Therefore, when people get together at festivals, the tunes they sing and perform are called "banquet songs".

Hui people have the custom of "getting married for three days, regardless of size", and the Hui people's "banquet song", an ancient rap performance art, has a history of more than 200 years.

Among the "banquet songs" of the Hui people in Qinghai, Menyuan's "banquet songs" are rich in tunes, beautiful in rhetoric, complete in narrative and easy to dance. The performance forms include solo, duet, chorus, chorus, question and answer, solo and chorus, duet and chorus, etc. The performers sang and danced, and the scene was lively and the atmosphere was warm and interesting.

According to An Baolong, the head of the Hui people's "Banquet Song" performance team in Yaodongzhuang Village, Quankou Town, Menyuan County, the "Banquet Song" is mainly passed down orally. At the age of 54, he inherited this folk art by forming a performance team and preaching. Combining tradition with fashion, he created and arranged White Ying Ge, The Return of Wife and Children, Ga Hui People on the Road to a Well-off Society and other works, which not only retained the original flavor of tradition, but also showed the rich flavor of modern Hui people's life.
