Alex Gao Apprentice of Yunnan Folk Song

Hsin-Yen Chang

Alex Gao is a post-80s writer and a teacher of Kunsan Middle School, a century-old prestigious school.

Yunnan folk songs pour out mutual love between men and women through singing, stimulate labor enthusiasm in the production struggle, express mourning for the dead, bless marriage, and express the joy of harvest and festivals.

In the lives of people of all ethnic groups, folk singing activities occupy a particularly important position and almost penetrate into all fields of life. They pour out their feelings by singing. Especially those who have no written language, they often rely on knowledgeable and experienced old singers to impart their knowledge of history, production, life and etiquette to their own people and teenagers with long narrative songs.
