When playing the lifting drum, it varies according to the size of the drum body. The smaller drum is carried by a young and strong guy alone, and the two dance while hitting; the larger drum is carried by two people with long bamboo poles. The drum is in front, and then one person holds a wooden drum in each hand to hit the thick-end drum face, and dances while beating, and everyone dances to the music, and there are musical instruments such as kick drum, cymbal, cymbal and other instruments to participate in the ensemble. It is probably named after the drum! Due to the different heights at both ends of the drum and the changeable rhythm, the drum sound is sometimes heavy and sometimes light, and the timbre is colorful.
Drums are mostly played on courtyard dams, often with one or two drums as the core, surrounded by more than a dozen elephant-foot drums, each of which is accompanied by a cymbal and a pair of cymbals. The accompaniment band is so large, the dancing crowd is hundreds of thousands, and the scene is spectacular. This is the annual "Gongmu Pendulum" event on the 14th and 15th of the first lunar month. The mood is warm, full of joy and happiness. In the interval between music and dance, young boys and girls will form a circle and sing a folk song praising a better life, expressing their yearning for the future.
