Abstract
The study focuses on the sustaining folk songs in poya village, yunnan province, china, in the contemporary environment. Preliminary investigations revealed a significant decrease in the number of younger generations in poya village who aspire to learn their own folk songs, as well as a lack of awareness about the preservation of traditional folk songs. Therefore, it leads to the problem that the local traditional folk songs cannot be well sustained. Furthermore, many scholars focused on the folk song itself, or the sustaining approach, in this area of study without considering the wider context that relates to the sustaining of folk songs. However, the poya folk song serves as a manifestation and perpetuation of the zhuang ethnic group’s culture, closely aligning with it. Consequently, this study selects the folk songs of the poya village in yunnan province, china, as the research sample, employing a purely qualitative ethnographic research design to examine the intrinsic phenomena among the zhuang ethnic culture and the sustaining of folk songs in poya village.
