The inspiration for "Mountain Songs"
Music holds a significant role within the cultural tapestry of Gaoshan village in Yiwu. Deeply rooted in tradition, the exchange of songs between potential lovers is a cherished practice. These melodic dialogues, often referred to as 'conversations in song,' serve as a crucial gauge of compatibility. A harmonious exchange bodes well for the blossoming of enduring relationships.
These heartfelt tunes have an ancestral connection to the village's history. Traditionally, they resounded through the mountainsides as villagers rested or foraged. It's remarkable to note that mountain dwellers possess remarkably robust voices and an innate vocal brilliance. This prowess allows them to effortlessly communicate across the expanse of mountains and even reach several houses down the street.
This auditory tradition not only showcases the beauty of human connection but also underscores the remarkable adaptability of Gaoshan's residents to their natural surroundings.
