The traditional bamboo and wood musical instruments of the Li nationality mainly include the bowl spoon, the burning bar, the nose flute, the mouth bow, the bow, the cuilie, the ding dong and the dumu drum. Musical instruments for self-entertainment are widely circulated in the Li area and are an important part of the Chinese musical instrument culture and art. In June 2008, the traditional bamboo and wood musical instruments of the Li nationality were selected into the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage protection projects.

Among the bamboo and wood musical instruments of the Li nationality, the nose flute is rare in China, and it is unique in the music hall. In the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Qingchang wrote "Li Qi Ji Wen", which stated: "Men and women who are unmarried, every time at the turn of spring and summer, gather together in the field, the male plays the zither, the female plays the nose and flute, and sings Li songs. Gather one place, that is, order the coupling, and those who do not agree, dare not be strong.” The traditional ballad of the Li nationality: "Throw a stone to explore the water source, play the curved nose flute to test one's heart", from historical documents and traditional Li nationality songs, we can see that the nose flute is closely related to the love life of the Li nationality youth, and it is the expression of love for the Li nationality youth. One of the most commonly used musical instruments.

According to Wang Wenhua's "Collections of Musical Instruments of the Li Nationality": "The flute is made of mangosteen, and its length, thickness and specifications are different. The folks often use a thin bamboo tube without knots. The length of the tube is 60 cm to 70 cm and the diameter of the tube is about 1.6 cm. At 8 cm from the mouth of the two ends, open a circular sound hole. The sound hole can be opened on one side of the pipe body, or one in the front and one in the front. If a bamboo pipe with bamboo joints at both ends is used, A circular through hole needs to be opened in the center of the section; if you use a multi-section bamboo tube, you need to open the bamboo section. The blow hole is at the thin end of the bamboo tube.”

"When playing, the tube body is placed upright, the left thumb presses the upper hole, the right thumb and index finger press the hole and the bottom hole respectively. Place the upper blowing hole diagonally on the right nostril, and exhale against the nostril to excite the air column in the tube to pronounce the sound. Sometimes you can play by blocking the left nostril with your hands." The sound of the nose flute is low and quiet. "In the folks of the Li people, you can occasionally see a long nose flute, the longest of which is 160 centimeters long, and you need to lie down to play it. Use your toes to press the sound hole below. This kind of long nose flute is now only extremely Only a few old people can play, and it is generally difficult for the younger generation of the Li family to control."
