The folk songs of various ethnic groups in our country are extremely rich. From the "National Style" in the "Book of Songs" to the various folk song anthologies collected and published after liberation, the number is quite large.

As for the traditional songs and new folk songs that are still circulating among the people, there are even more. In terms of form, these folk songs are among the Han nationality's factory-removing ballads, children's songs, four-sentence folk songs and various labor chants. In addition, there are "Xintianyou", "Mountain Climbing Song", "Five Sentences" and "Four Seasons Song", "Wugeng Diao" and "December". There are various distinctive styles such as "Ten Branches of Flowers" and "Pan Song". As for the Tibetan people's "Lu" and "Xie", the Zhuang people's "Huan", the Bai people's "Baiqu", the Hui people's "Hua'er", the Miao people's "Fei Ge", the Dong people's "Da Ge", the Buyi people's " "Bi Guan Song" and the "Xiangli Song" of the Yao people, etc., each has its own unique form. In terms of style, Miao and Yao songs are simple and profound, while Tibetan and Dai songs are glorious and graceful.

Mongolian folk songs are strong and melodious, while Oroqen folk songs are rough and powerful. Both are "flowers", but the Baoan people and the Dongxiang people have different charms, and those of Ningxia and Qinghai also have different charms. They are both Han folk songs. The northern ones are known for their boldness, while the southern ones are more euphemistic.
