Background of Creation
In 1964, under the personal leadership of Premier Zhou, the creation of the large-scale music and dance epic "The East is Red" was completed. The Oriental Red was a 3,000-strong performance team, and the birth of the Hymn was one of the many stories in the Oriental Red convention.
"The East is Red" sixth "Great Festival" was a pure dance program, to enhance the celebratory atmosphere to congratulate the birth of a new China, Premier Zhou decided to add a tenor solo in the first part of the sixth, preferably in the style of Mongolian music at the same time with the dance accompanied by song.
Because of the understanding that Hu Songhua has just returned to Beijing from the Inner Mongolian steppe "four with" type of life experience and independent choreography "Sengi Dema" and "Harvest Song" background, this task will naturally fall on his shoulders.
