Abstract

In this video, Baldan sings Örgön Ih Torghud Nutug (The wide and great Torghut homeland) and a Jangar song. Baldan is a herder and he has come to the banner centre to rehearse for a performance in Chagan Sar – the Lunar New Year. He says that they have been unaware of these cultural things until a teacher from Xinjiang came and taught them a few years ago.
