historical origin
The forest trumpet is a kind of song sung by woodcutters who are engaged in carrying wood in the forest; the forest trumpet of Changbai Mountain is a kind of song sung by woodcutters when carrying wood in Changbai Mountain, as the saying goes, "trumpet".
The trumpet is the natural voice of people when lifting wood. The leader of the lifting wooden people "bars head" (also known as trumpet head) will lead the singing. The others "pick up" (also known as receipt number) will make it easy to walk neatly and make the wood leisurely, so as to equalize the pressure and carry the wood.
Since the forest and logging, the forest chant has never stopped. It has lived in the forest of Changbai Mountain for thousands of years. However, in recent years, because the forest is in the stage of stopping mining and protecting, and the mechanized transport of wood can be carried by the crane in the log yard, which makes the activities of lifting wood less and less, so the number of such forest chants is becoming less and less. And the old loggers who used to sing this kind of chant are getting old and dying, which makes the forest culture which has been circulating for thousands of years difficult to be inherited and in a real state of endangerment.
However, because the forests in Changbai Mountain need to be "cut down" every few years in order to make the forests transparent and ventilated, and in addition to mechanized timber transportation, some timber yards organize some forestry workers to lift timber. In fact, this kind of forest trumpet still exists vividly in today's Changbai Mountain forest, providing conditions for rescuing and protecting this precious natural ecological culture.
