壮族大歌 - Grand Song of the Zhuang People (广西艺术学院附中)

[hanoibunny]

The term 'Dai' is actually confusing because you can also use it to describe all Tai people like Zhuang, Dai in Yunnan (it is better to call them Tai Lue), Lao, Ahom, Li , Bouyei, Dong, Shan (Tai Yai), Tai Dam and 75% of Thailands population etc.

Cant we just call them "people"?

[LawChunHou]

very good bcoz my ancestors' origin also the Zhuang(壮族)

[zhouang1]

you like Yang Shaoli the principle dancer here?

[KINHTOC]

Zhuang origin dai ?

can they speak dai ?

[GnomaticReverie]

Zhuang and Dai are distinct ethnic groups. The Zhuang lives mostly in Guangxi/Guizhou provinces while the Dai is mostly in Yunnan.

Each ethnic minority has its own dialect(s).

This is really nice! LOVE THE ZHUANG SINGING!

Are the dancers featured here Zhuang themselves?

[GnomaticReverie]

Not necessarily, but the dancers were students of the secondary school affiliated w/Guangxi Arts Academy. I wouldn't be surprised if many of them are ethnic minorities, if not Zhuang.

[zhouang1]

maybe 2 others beside Shaoli and Xiao Yu are Zhuang but Li Hong, her sister Ping (both primary dancers in this troup) are Hann as are a few of the others.

[zhouang1]

The two principle dancers Yang Shaoli and Xiao Yu are both Zhuang but the others are not.

Thank you for sharing this. I adopted a little girl from Guangxi who is Zhuang and we try to find everything we can to share with her about their culture and heritage.

The first minute-& 20+ seconds is completely silent, I thought there was a malfunction, but the wait was completely worth it, SO good! Thanks for posting!
