Four days ago, he also attended the release of a new book. The Mongolian musician Buren Bayar died of illness at the age of 58
"Abba, did the sun come out and the moon go home? Yes. Where did the stars come out and the sun go? In the sky." This is the familiar and detailed "Abba Q&A" in the song "Three Auspicious Treasures". Yesterday, the reporter learned that the "Abba" who wrote and sang this song, the Mongolian musician Buren Bayar, died of sudden heart attack on the 19th, aged 58.
Brenbayar was a broadcasting host of China Radio International. He grew up in the deep of Hulunbeier Prairie, and later lived in Beijing for many years. "Three Auspicious Treasures" is the most widely sung song of Brenbayar, which is his work for his daughter Norman's 3rd birthday. Bujenbayar's daughter often asked questions around her father. Bujen's wife, Urina, felt that their questions and answers sounded like music. Inspired by this, Bujen wrote "Three Auspicious Treasures".
In 2005, Brenbayar released the album "The Horizon", which included "Three Auspicious Treasures". In 2006, this song appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and was composed of "Three Auspicious Treasures" by Buren Bayar, his wife, Wu Rina and niece Ingmar. Later, the song spread all over the country, and the warm family scenes and strong Mongolian sentiment were loved by the audience.
When he learned the news of Brenbayar's sudden death, his friend, famous musician and music critic, Horqin Fu, was shocked. He said, "I can't help but grieve. A few days ago, he was in Hulunbeier to make a press conference for his collection of Hulunbeier · Viva, and never thought that people would be gone." When he just received the sad news, Horchin fu could not believe that he choked up during the interview.
Keerqin Fu knew Buren Bayar many years ago and wrote a song "My Life, My Grassland" for Buren. In Kerchin Fu's impression, Buren is a "delicate Mongolian with great feelings". Brenbayar wrote "Moonlight" many years ago, which is the song he wrote to his wife. "The emotion is very delicate and very moving", Horchin Fu said.
As a Mongolian musician, Brenbayar is full of deep feelings for Mongolian and grassland, which is not only reflected in music creation. Since 2016, Brenbayar has launched the public welfare activity of "Shooting 100 centenarians in Hulunbeier". He acted as a photographer himself, recording the vivid images of 100 centenarians in Hulunbeier Prairie in two years. Last year, these photographic works were exhibited in Beijing.
He left so suddenly! Just four days ago (September 15), his collection of photographic works of Hulunbeier · Viva had just held a new book release conference in Hulunbeier. On the same day, he said at the press conference that he felt "the tenacity and optimism unique to people in this land" in the process of contacting these old people, and hoped that he could record precious pictures through his own efforts.
While the words were still in my ears, Bujenbayar passed away. His sudden death also triggered netizens' mourning. Netizens left messages, "Go all the way, thank you for leaving such a good work" "asked Abba a question, but never heard the answer......"
