Plateau [Tibetan, Naxi and Pumi] Music Project
Gerald Roche, Nationalities Department, Qinghai Education College, Xining, Qinghai, PRC
Self-description:
"The Tibetan Endangered Music Project was founded in order to preserve endangered songs on the Tibetan Plateau. Most of this music will disappear in the next decade. Our members, all local volunteers from the English Training Program at Qinghai Normal University, Qinghai Province, PR China, have since 2005 recorded more than five hundred Tibetan traditional songs. Beginning in late 2007, our project expanded to record endangered songs of other ethnic minority groups such as the Naxi and Pumi ethnicities in China's Yunnan Province. To reflect this new diversity, we have changed our name to the Plateau Music Project."
Supplied note:
"We are pleased to announce that the Plateau Music Project has two more posts on our website. One post contains a paper in English and Chinese, introducing the history, methods and achievements of the project. The other post contains three songs recorded by one of our members from Mianning County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Suchuan Province, PR China. - tm."
