Narrative Songs of Dong Ethnic Group: 'The Butterfly Lovers' of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai was published by The Ethnic Publishing House in 2020, under the editorship of Long Yaohong et al., who tried to preserve the style and characteristics of the original songs, besides making IPA transcriptions to the work. The Dong ethnic group in Guizhou has a rich tradition of narrative songs, including a popular rendition of the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. The repertoire includes a range of genres such as grand songs, pipa songs, antiphonal songs, vernacular songs, folk songs, operas, wedding songs that express feelings of romantic love. What follows is a preliminary work on it, a try to conveying the meaning and the image, and a story of communication, exchanges, and integration of different ethnic groups in China.
