Hoomii - Steppe Culture's Treasure

 

 

Ancient Tuvans, Mongolians and other hunting ethic groups participated in hunting and war. Before the war, they should sing choruses aloud, and after hunting they would and give vent and fever dancing. In the chor voice, which could topple the mountains and overturn the seas, natural forms produced an ethereal overtone effect. People try to transplant the basic chor chorus skills to one person. After the long exploration, people created this peculiar vocal form.

It is said as early as the 13th century, “Xiao” has prevailed as a heroic epic rap art period and prevailed at the Mongolia steppe. “Xiao”, the primitive form of “haolin chor”, was a northern steppe national singing art that was recorded in many ancient books in China (including the "book of songs") and was verified by music scientists. If the deduction can be founded, “World Music History” will be re-written from its essential part and the parcel of the music cultural source of human tremolo musical culture.

We can see their internal relations, only from the comparison of the Mongolian pronunciation of “chor” and many minority ethic groups’ languages in the chorus, the harmonic chords of western tremolo music. Chor, the exact Mongolian pronunciation is “chor”, and the sound, chords, chorus, and such terms as the hymn in the relevant countries of Europe are chorus (British English), chord (France), chor (Germany). It is no coincidence that the etyma are so breathtaking the same.
