Abstract

Some people ask, “why do most of the Miao people in Western Hunan still live in mountains and valleys?” At that time, they were forced to work together to fight against the national treasures of the west, but they were forced to struggle against the national treasures of the West because of the oppressive policies of the ethnic minorities. Since ancient times, Miao songs in Western Hunan have also been an indispensable part of Miao people's daily life. Because Miao people have no written expression, their cultural and artistic heritage can only be realized in the form of song and music. Their usual joy, anger, sadness and joy are also reflected in Miao songs vividly. In the big garden of Chinese folk music, Xiangxi Miao song also has its own unique beauty.
