Wuyue ceremonial Chinese folk songs, historically performed during sacrificial ceremonies, represent a significant part of China's intangible cultural heritage. These songs are deeply rooted in ancient Chinese religious practices and are important for preserving cultural identity. This study investigates the literacy transmission practices that contribute to the preservation of Wuyue ceremonial folk songs. The research focuses on how written and digital forms of documentation can complement the oral traditions traditionally used to transmit Wuyue. The study was conducted in Qinghai Province, where Wuyue originated, involving three key informants, including cultural scholars, educators, and local performers deeply engaged in preserving Wuyue. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, field observations, and document analysis, then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results highlight the declining prevalence of Wuyue due to modernization and generational disengagement. However, the shift towards literacy-based transmission, including written documentation and digital archiving, has played a crucial role in preserving Wuyue. Educational programs and digital platforms offer promising avenues for revitalizing this tradition. The study suggests further integration of Wuyue into formal education and the development of innovative digital strategies to engage younger generations. These findings provide valuable insights into balancing modernization with cultural heritage preservation.
