Résumé
The Bulang (100 000 people), first called Puman by the Chinese belong to the Mon Khmer (austro asiatic) linguistic family (spread from Cambodia to eastern India) and divided into sub groups with distinctive languages, they are 32 000 Bulang in Lincang. The Wu are one of them. Few Bulang villages haven t converted to Theravada Buddhism, while most did under the influence of Dai who ruled the area for centuries before the chinese moved in. Religious music as much as non religious one still carry the Dai cultural influence. The music was recorded in Lincang prefecture in Yunnan and is obviously different from the music of the main branch of Bulang in Xichuan Banna prefecture further south.
