"Today, when I played "Deep Bamboo Forest" with cucurbit flute solo, in my mind was a picture of people from all over the country and all ethnic groups gathered together, laughing, embracing, and expressing their thoughts to each other. On July 2, Jin Ye Xiaowa, a national first-class performer and first-class vocal actor, expressed the emotions she poured into her performance.

On the same day, a special concert of "Folk Song Daguan·There is a Beautiful Place - Dehong Yunnan" sponsored by the Propaganda Department of the Dehong Prefecture Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Yunnan Branch of China News Service was held in Kunming, Yunnan. Jinye Huowa, Dehong Mengba Naxi Orchestra, etc., through a combination of live singing and online live broadcasts, gathered with netizens across the country "on the cloud", leading netizens and audiences to experience the unique charm of Dehong Prefecture.

On the China-Myanmar border, by the Ruili River, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture is a bright pearl embedded in the southwestern border of China. Born and raised here, Jin Ye Xiaowa has a deep attachment to her hometown, "The people of all ethnic groups in Dehong can sing and dance well, which is a fertile soil for art. I have dreamed of spreading Dehong's national music since I was a child. "

When she grew up, Jin Ye Huowa's dream gradually came true. She performed with cucurbit silks all over the country, so that more and more people knew and fell in love with the folk music from Dehong. She introduced that the cucurbit flute is one of the ethnic musical instruments in Yunnan, and its timbre is "light, floating and soft".

"Some people think that Hulusi is only suitable for playing melody and lyrical music. In fact, there are many kinds of music that Hulusi can play. For example, I can play rock music with electro-acoustic Hulusi." Jin Yehuowa said that Hulusi is changing with the times. Progress has been expanded from seven holes to eleven holes, and the vocal range has also been expanded.

In 2002, after marrying Nan Jiang, who is also a musician, Jin Yehaowa and his wife established cucurbit silk training institutions in several cities, which further promoted the promotion of cucurbit silk. "My husband Nanjiang is a person who loves to study very much. The new type of cucurbit silk he developed has obtained many patents." Jinye Huowa said that Nanjiang developed a colorful electric cucurbit in order to adapt the cucurbit silk to her playing style. Since then, it has also developed synthetic materials such as cucurbit silk, speaker cucurbit silk, etc., which are favored by the industry.

Jinye Huowa not only promotes cucurbit silk domestically, but also takes it abroad. Since 2016, under the leadership of her mentor Li Chunhua, Jinye Huowa has held a number of concerts in the United States, the United Kingdom, South Africa and other places with a group of domestic cucurbit flute lovers, which are well received by local audiences.

"What makes me proud and proud at the concert is that the well-known symphony orchestra accompanies my cucurbit flute." Jin Ye Xiaowa recalled, "I not only played traditional folk music with cucurbit flute, but also played many world famous songs, even Rock 'n' roll. The audience abroad was so shocked, there was a lot of applause after the performance."

The wonderful performance of Jinye Shouta has attracted many foreign audiences and spread the cucurbit flute locally through Confucius Institutes in many countries. However, the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in 2020 has hindered her promotion of cucurbit silk. Since then, Jinye Huowa has transferred its promotion platform to online, and has performed and taught cucurbit flute through multiple short video platforms. "During the epidemic, I also put more energy on the creation of original music of cucurbit silk." Jinye Huowa said.

In June 2022, after receiving the invitation to the special concert of "Folk Song Daguan·There is a Beautiful Place - Dehong, Yunnan", Jinye Huowa agreed without hesitation, "I hope my performance can better promote morality. Hong, contribute to Dehong's resumption of work."

On the stage on July 2, "Deep Bamboo Forest" performed by Jin Ye Xiaowa was originally a famous cucurbit flute song reflecting the love life of Dai youth, but she injected more emotion into her performance, "I want to pass This piece makes the audience all over the country like folk music and love life even more."

"In July, I will hold a national cucurbit silk research and root-seeking activity in Dehong, and will hold more concerts in various places in the future." Jinye Huowa said, hoping to let more people know about Yunnan Dehong through cucurbit silk ,Understand China.
