Clang overview

Clang Qi (pinyin: Qiāng) originated from the "Silk Road" that was directly introduced to Xinjiang, which should have been earlier than the end of the Ming Dynasty, and then spread to Hami, eastern Xinjiang at the end of the 18th century.

镪, Uyghur percussion stringed musical instrument. Also translated as Chang. Also known as Xinjiang Yangqin. Popular in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

In addition to Xinjiang, there are also kang in Tibetan areas. Popular in larger towns such as Lhasa in Tibet. At the end of the 18th century (the eighth Dalai Lama period), it was brought back to Tibet by the Tibetan official Dengzhe Banjiu from the interior, and it was used in the Nangma, Duixie and the court singing and dancing gar bands successively.

Xinjiang Qiangqin, also known as Xinjiang Yangqin, is the same as the mainland Yangqin.

With the change and development of the times, the qiang has also changed, from the first generation to the second generation. Since then, on the basis of the second generation of qiang, there has been an increase in the body, the widening of the string spacing, and the maintenance of two rows of horses. Reform Qiang, the pronunciation is both crisp and loud.
