historical origin
Uygur folk songs are very rich in content, which can be divided into two parts: traditional folk songs and new folk songs. Folk songs are the reflection of the people's voice. Traditional folk songs include love songs, labor songs, historical songs, Life songs and other categories. But the essence of its spirit is basically "pleasure in pain".
The development of traditional music:
The traditional music of the Uygur nationality inherits the artistic traditions of Guzi music, Gaochangle music, Yizhou music, Shule music, Huihe music and Arabic music in the ancient Western Regions, and retains strong national and regional characteristics.
In the long-term historical development, the Uygur folk music in Xinjiang has melted the milk of local life, forming the different styles of Southern Xinjiang, Eastern Xinjiang and Daolang color areas. Southern Xinjiang has a wide range of color areas with different contents and forms, and Hetian folk songs are simple and short, rich in local flavor; Kashgar folk songs have complex rhythm and rich modes; Kuqa folk songs are lively and lively, with distinct dancability, implicitly revealing the legacy of ancient turtles'music and dancing postures; Eastern Xinjiang color areas include Hami, Turpan and other places, where folk songs are all in terms of structure and mode. There are many similarities with the folk songs of Han and Mongolian nationalities. The folk songs in Daolang color area have rough style and retain the pastoral sentiment favored by the ancient nomadic Daolang people.
In the history of Uygur music, the famous Chinese and foreign large-scale Classical Music Suite Twelve Mukam occupies an important position. It is an artistic treasure of the perfect combination of Uygur national music and dance. It includes more than 340 classical narrative songs, folk narrative poems, dance music and improvisational music, which are spread throughout the northern and southern Xinjiang. Mukam is divided into "Daolang Mukam", "Hami Mukam" and "Ili Mukam" according to different regions. Among them, "Kashgar Mukam" is the largest in scale and the most complete in form and melody. For the development and standardization of this Muqam, Amanisha Khan, the queen of the second generation of Yarkang's monarch Abu Dhurzesikhan in the 16th century, once paid an indelible tribute.
Twelve Mukams was published after the founding of New China. The whole set of Mukam includes more than 170 songs, songs and dances, 72 instrumental interludes, playing continuously for 24 hours, with the national characteristics of music, dance and words. This is a huge and complete musical epic, which almost summarizes the struggling life of the Uygur people for hundreds of years and all their national art forms. The distinctive features of Uygur music are also manifested in the diversity of national musical instruments.

Muqam
Mukam is the classical music of Uygur nationality, which contains instrumental music, vocal music, dance and other components. Uygur Mukam can be roughly divided
There are five kinds: the first is twelve Mukams popular in Kashgar, Kuqa, Aksu and Shache; the second is Hami Mukam popular in Hami and Yiwu; the third is Mukam popular in Turpan; the fourth is Ili Mukam; the fifth is Daolang Mukam. Except for 9 sets of Muqam in Turpan, the rest are 12 sets, totaling 57 sets.
The structure of the popular Mukam is not the same everywhere. The most complete and huge one is the twelve Mukam. Twelve Mukams consist of more than 170 songs and 70 instrumental music. It takes more than 20 hours to play them once. Each set consists of three components: "Poor Nakman", "Dastan" and "Masilep". Each part consists of several different paragraphs. "Poor Nakman" means "Daqu", which begins with a deep emotional prelude to a slate, followed by "Taizi", through passages such as "Nursh", "Selek", "Jura" and so on, until the exciting "Seinem" (unlike the singing and dancing "Seinem") and "Grand Selek" reach their climax, and finally ends with a light "Taikat". "Dastan" is composed of three to five narrative songs with different rhythms and speeds. There are interludes between each narrative song. Uygur is called "Majegur". "Messilep" is the name of an ancient poet. His poems are easy to understand and are well known to women and children, so they are often sung in folk tunes and accompanied by dance. Over time, the poet's name became the name of this part of Mukam. In 1983, the Mukam Art Troupe was set up in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and Mukam's research work was on the right track.
