Zhang Xinmin and Bai Xingwu. Wandering in the New City is a musical duet composed in 1959, with lyrics by the collective (penned by Deng Xiankai), music composed by Li Caisheng, and sung by Zhang Xinmin and Bai Xingwu. Lyrics: "The red sun rises from the snowy mountains, the city of Lhasa glitters with golden light, the serfs are skillfully groomed, and Abba and his daughter are strolling around the new city. The song was first performed by the Tibetan Song and Dance Troupe in Lhasa in 1961, and was warmly welcomed by the masses. After that, it soon became popular throughout the country, and was loved by people of all ethnic groups, and played a very good role in promoting the unity and mutual understanding of people of all ethnic groups, and was the image record of the Tibetan people entering the new era of socialism in music. In 1985, this song was included in the series of books celebrating the 20th anniversary of the founding of the Tibet Autonomous Region, "Selected Songs of Tibetan Songwriters", and was listed as the first of the five songs that "created a new style of Tibetan music". The Chinese Culture Newspaper also listed it as one of the five lyrical songs that "aroused strong **songs** in the country in the middle of the 50s and 60s".
