1. Romantic weddings think of happy times
On a weekend in July 2023, a grand wedding ceremony in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, in northern China, kicked off in a luxury hotel, filled with joy and happiness.
The bride, Norman, was dressed in a delicate traditional Mongolian wedding dress, her bright smile bloomed like a summer flower, and the groom clasped her hands with happiness shining in her eyes.
At this moment full of laughter, Norman's sister Ingmar stood up to send her most sincere wishes to her sister. She recalled that 17 years ago, she was still the cute little girl in the "Auspicious Three Treasures", and she appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala with her uncle and aunt.
The audience was all moved by the warm interaction of the family, and the songs they sang became popular all over the country. Ingmar's affectionate narration made the atmosphere of the scene even stronger, and everyone seemed to have returned to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
Norman recalls the story of his father, Burenbayar, who wrote the song, and his mother, Uzhina, remembers the hard years they spent in Beijing, where they were happy despite the warmth of their family.
Second, the artistic dream into the reality of the boyhood
At that time, Burenbayar and Wurina were just students in an ordinary middle school in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and the two met and became friends because of their love for music. From an early age, Uzhna showed extraordinary singing talent and had a strong belief in her unique voice.
However, in a singing competition organized by the school, she heard Booren's singing voice for the first time, and she was shocked by the penetrating and infectious voice, and she was impressed by this classmate from then on.
In fact, as a child, Buren was introverted and often acted a little shy. He didn't dare to take the initiative to sign up for this competition, but his brother quietly signed up for it. When the staff shouted his name loudly on stage, Buren's face instantly turned red, and he lowered his head nervously, hesitating whether to go on stage.
With the encouragement of his brother, he finally mustered up the courage to step onto the stage.
Unexpectedly, once he started singing, Buren seemed to be a different person, full of energy, like a river, and his singing voice was high-pitched and passionate, which instantly attracted the audience.
Uzhna admired the silhouette of Burena on stage who was engrossed in the world of music, and she secretly sighed in her heart that this young man was indeed extraordinary, and that he was indeed an artist of great talent.
Since graduating, they have temporarily lost touch for a short time. Devoted to the local Mongolian art troupe, Buren worked tirelessly to learn various ethnic instruments, especially the horse-head fiddle.
Uzhna realized her long-cherished wish and was successfully admitted to the vocal music school, specializing in vocal arts.
It wasn't long before they met again at their alma mater, and they were both rejoicing and proud of each other's remarkable progress in their music careers. The melodious melody instantly connects them, which in turn inspires deeper emotions, and the friendship between the two gradually sublimates into love, and finally ties the knot.
3. The songwriting process of "Auspicious Three Treasures".
Soon after their marriage, Buren and Uzhna welcomed their first little angel in their lives - a lively and lovely daughter. The arrival of the newborn brings endless joy to the couple, and they give all their love to take care of this little baby.
However, something unfortunate happened, shortly after the birth of his daughter, Buren's father died suddenly, which plunged the entire family into deep grief. Buren's mother was so depressed that she washed her face with tears every day, and seeing her so devastated, Buren and his wife also felt very distressed.
In order to ensure that her daughter can grow up healthy and happy, Buren resolutely made a difficult decision: temporarily send her back to her hometown in Inner Mongolia to be cared for by relatives and friends.
In this way, the originally happy family of three was forced to separate for a while. Three years later, Buren and Urina finally bought a new home in Beijing and the family was reunited.
When they saw their daughter's innocent smile, the fatherly love in Buren's heart surged like a tide
In the face of his daughter's questions full of infinite curiosity, Buren always patiently answered them, telling her about the wonders of this world in delicate and affectionate words.
It is in this daily life that Buren's creative inspiration springs like a spring. He was eager to compose a unique song for this cute little life, so he burst out of inspiration, and based on his daughter's innocent and immaculate anecdotes, he created the popular "Auspicious Three Treasures".
This masterpiece is composed in a unique witty and lively children's rhyme style, vividly outlining a happy, harmonious and happy family atmosphere for a family of three. Songwriter Buren's clever use of energetic tunes and catchy lyrics aptly shows the innocence and curiosity of children.
Although the lyrics are as simple and clear as a children's rhyme, they contain a deep love for this small family.
At first, the song was just a sketch for his family, but it didn't take long for it to make a name for itself by word of mouth among friends. When it was suggested that Buren should release the work officially, he made a decision after much deliberation.
However, he did not expect that this sketch, which was originally intended to depict family life, would have such a profound impact on the trajectory of his life.
One day in 2006, a director at CCTV came across "Auspicious Three Treasures". He was immediately attracted by this simple and simple, joyful and warm melody, and a moving picture instantly appeared in his mind: a family of three sang this song amiably on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, what a lovely and warm scene it would be!
Fourth, the Spring Festival Gala performance and the happy life afterward
The director's invitation to the Spring Festival Gala made Buren's family ecstatic, but they soon faced a problem - when the song was recorded, Buren's daughter was a child, and now she has grown up, her voice has changed, and the child's voice is no longer a child.
Seeing that the precious opportunity of the Spring Festival Gala was about to be missed, the director decided to find another way to temporarily find a little girl to replace him.
After careful consideration, Bouren's niece, Ingmar, came to the fore. Ingmar, who grew up listening to the singing of her aunt's parents, has long been familiar with this song.
Although her face was a little rusty, with the tacit cooperation of the three of them, the rehearsal went very smoothly.
Finally, the long-awaited 2006 Spring Festival Gala kicked off. The Buren family of three dressed up to attend, Ingmar wore gorgeous Mongolian robes, and the three of them performed "The Three Treasures of Auspiciousness" energetically on stage.
Buren and Uzhna sing affectionately and vividly interpret the roles of husband and wife and parents, while Ingmar lovingly plays the role of immature daughters, laughing and intimacy with them.
In just a few minutes, the whole stage was enveloped by a strong sense of family and country and a warm and touching atmosphere, and the audience was strongly shocked and burst into tears. Since the beginning of this time, "Auspicious Three Treasures" has quickly become popular all over the country, and the popularity of the Buren family has soared, and the wealth has also risen.
They devote all their enthusiasm to the promotion and dissemination of Mongolian music culture, and are committed to inheriting and carrying forward the essence of national culture.
Soon after, the Buren couple founded their own national choir in the capital Beijing, building a platform for many young children who love music to pursue their dreams.
There was a boy named Udamu in the choir, who, despite his young age, was amazing in his singing talent and talent. Upon learning of his family's extremely difficult situation, the Bren couple did not hesitate to decide to adopt the child and integrate him into their extended family.
Since then, the Buren family, which originally consisted of only four people, has now become a family of five, and they are happy. Even her niece, Ingmar, was taken to Beijing to join them.
The children have their own unique growth paths: Ingmar successfully stepped into the entertainment industry with her lively and cute image, Norman inherited his parents' musical talent and embarked on a musical path at the age of 8 and became a well-known music producer as an adult, and Udama accumulated a wealth of stage experience in the choir.
The life of this family is full of laughter and happiness. In 2018, Buren unfortunately passed away due to a myocardial infarction, and his mother Urina suddenly collapsed to the ground and was overwhelmed with grief.
The three children rushed home from all directions, looking helplessly at each other as their mother's life was in danger, their eyes full of worry.
Sixth, the reinvigorated musician Uzhna
The sudden death of her husband Buren was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Uzhna. During the long days after Buren's departure, Uzhna was in a trance and fell into a state of extreme grief.
She once stared at her husband's last photo, her eyes empty and blank, as if she had lost all the motivation of her life.
Seeing their mother struggling so painfully, the three children's hearts were like knives. They rushed back from all directions, waited by her mother's side day and night, and tried every means to comfort and enlighten her.
Norman never tires of recounting his father's passionate and legendary musical career, Ingmar sings a touching family song composed by his father's own hand, and Udam, a young boy, shows maturity beyond his years to take on the chores of the family without complaint.
Under the meticulous care and encouragement of the children, Uzhina gradually got rid of the shadow in her heart and rekindled her passion for music. She is determined to carry on the unfinished legacy of her husband Buren, firmly follow the path of Mongolian music, and convey love and hope with musical notes.
Urina has done her best to reinvigorate the choir, which she has worked hard for more than a decade, and has nurtured generations of outstanding Mongolian singers on this basis.
Through unremitting efforts, she has successfully built this choir into a well-known music group in Inner Mongolia.
Standing at a new starting point on the path of music, Uzhna is no longer the young girl she once was, her hair is already mottled. However, every time she sees her students shine on stage, she is deeply inspired and feels that all her efforts have been duly rewarded.
Uzhna knew that as long as she held on to her beliefs, she could one day bring Mongolian music to a wider world.
