Features: Regarding the versions of traditional pieces, the ones provided in this textbook are merely versions. Since the versions of traditional pieces for most ethnic instruments are often varied in performances, this is determined by the inherent flexibility of ethnic music. We should appreciate this musical cultural phenomenon and its characteristics. However, candidates should also note: First, the version of the piece chosen by the candidate should indeed be the same piece as the one in the textbook, not a different piece with the same name; Second, the technical and musical expressive difficulty of the version chosen by the candidate should be roughly equivalent to the level of the piece version provided in the textbook. As long as it is not lower than the level of the piece version provided in the textbook, candidates need not worry about using the same piece from a different version of this textbook.
All the pieces in this textbook (excluding exercises) have been tested and proven through years of domestic examination practice. This edition has added a certain number of exercises, hoping to promote the improvement of extracurricular teaching standards for the guzheng in the future.
