A Chinese folk Song

Dragon Boart Tune is a Chinese folk song, which is from Tujia ethnic group in HuBei. Why we call the song is a tune is because it is one feature of Chinese folk songs like a melody, whch is from local people, and it is related to local customs. The song is about a story that a lively girl wanted to cross a river to greet her relatives for the Chinese New Year, so she asked who could help her to cross the river. The song is very interesting and the melody is so nice. As a folk songs artist, Songzuying used her excellend sing skills to perform the song and led us to the different culture from a minority. It is like the word says,Music is a cultural voice of minorities. Furthemore, no matter where you are from, no matter which language you speak, music makes us connect each other together.
