"There is a Beautiful Place" is a representative vocal work in Yunnan. It has been enduring for many years and is well known to every household. It is based on Dai music and reflects the beautiful scenery and customs of Dehong Prefecture, Yunnan.

The area around Dehong Prefecture is a green world all year round, with huge banyan trees, dense virgin forests, beautiful golden peacocks, Dai bamboo buildings with the same shape, Buddhist culture spread far and wide, common ethnic customs, jubilant Ruili River, etc. Wait, it is indeed a beautiful place, a place people yearn for.

This piece is originally a vocal piece, and the range is just enough to use cucurbit flute, so this piece is also a cucurbit solo piece that people like. For those who play cucurbit flute, this piece is the first piece of music. I will play this piece below. Let us know where to pay attention.

First of all, if you want to play this piece perfectly, you can't save the playing of the low 3, but unfortunately some cucurbit flute productions do not have the low 3, and some other players feel that the low sound is not good, so they turn it up 8 degrees. Performance, this has a greater impact on the integrity of the music and the beauty of the melody, so it is best not to omit the low 3. In the music, the low 3 is presented 6 times. Here, pay attention to the performance of the 533 bars of 15 and 16. In order to avoid the 3 It is the coo when the breath changes between the two tones, so a light spit can be added between the two tones, but the excessive natural smoothness between the two tones.

This song is not difficult in terms of technique and rhythm. Generally, beginners can complete the performance, but the rhythm is not good. We can use the teacher's explanation or listen to many imitations to reflect this song according to our own musical sense. The use of duplication and virtual finger vibrato is particularly important. I will not explain the detailed use here. Please listen to the demo songs and carefully analyze the use of various techniques.
