Hanggai band, is a very interesting revelation for me, when i was in Beijing on last spring, my friends gone to one of their show in a famous rock live club called Dos Kolegas (两个好朋友 in chinese). The day next my friend came home with one Hanggai's CD, and i listened to this very traditional mongolian melody made with some "strange" instruments i've never known.
So i think to share this music, because of two articles on Hanggai i've read some days ago on China Files (only in italian): article 1 and 2, who tooks back my memories.
Music's a universal language, i left to you some videos:
watch it, enjoy it, & you could feel like being in a mongolian desert.
and the most ironic and choral DRINKING SONG!!!
“Hanggai's music is very traditional Mongolian music. Some of our songs are influenced by Chinese music, because those songs were composed after the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, and we were all born long after that! We are influenced by what we grew up listening to, and we're still searching for our musical roots”
