Dear MEL Topic Readers,
'Battle Drums' celebrates Chinese New Year and Winter Olympics
A battle drum or war drum is a drum used to be beaten as a summons to war or as an accompaniment to marching or fighting. One week before The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games, in order to inspire the international sports event, battle drums, or war drums were played on the ice at the foot of the Great Wall. Figure skaters in traditional costumes skated around the drum performers.
The world is still during the war against the coronavirus pandemic, one of the toughest enemies to mankind. Along with the performances and games in the Winter Olympic games, the drum beats may inspire our spirits to overcome the battle against the novel virus.
Enjoy watching the video and the beats.
