Track description:

The Dongbula is perhaps the most familiar national instrument unique to Kazakhstan. This wonderful plucked instrument used to be fashioned from a whole block of pine or birch, with long slender poles and fingers on the neck, and beautiful and simple cases of various shapes with two gut strings. It is light, carried on nomadic migrations, cradled in the arms of the herdsmen or their singers - Akan, by the campfire, on the back of the horse, singing between the strings, is a poem, encapsulating their lives, joys and sorrows and endless scenery, "song and horse are the two wings of the Kazakh people."

Kazakhs call the instrumental music "Kui Yi", this Dongbulakui "Swan" by the great Kazakh composer Nurheisha Treindeyev. Kazakh people very worship and cherish the white swan, the spring swan flying back in the eyes of the Kazakh people is a symbol of "swan return, great luck", and legend, Kazakh people are descendants of swans, the family name "Kazak" is the meaning of "white swan", and the white swan flying in the cloud is their family emblem.

Dongbu La sonorous and clever clang, the music has swans leisurely elegant and beautiful posture, happy water play, there are groups of flying across the sky, through the clouds over the mountain, the music is more and more rapid, such as horseback galloping when the wind, as if the Kazakh music saw the swan, they could not help but hold the winter bula, the mood of the fierce playing, Dongbu la like chasing the swan posture, They praise the noble, pure and faithful love represented by the swan, and deeply pray with music for the veneration of the swan, and the pious prayer for protection, luck and happiness.
