Features: To meet the learning needs of suona enthusiasts, the editor has compiled this "Suona Examination Repertoire Collection" based on the "Shanghai Conservatory of Music Suona Amateur Examination." This collection also summarizes the author's many years of experience in suona learning and teaching. The collection is divided into primary (Level 1-4), intermediate (Level 5-7), advanced (Level 8-10), and post-Grade 10 levels, and includes a large number of excellent pieces in various styles and schools, such as those from Shandong, Henan, Anhui, Hebei, Northeast, Shaanxi, Guangdong, and other regions. It contains over 80 practice pieces, solo pieces, and concertos. Following the principle of progressing from simple to complex and systematically, the compilation strives for accuracy, systematicity, scientific rigor, and standardization. In the "post-Grade 10" section, the editor has specially selected the suona concerto "Heavenly Music," a highly modern-style work composed by the renowned Chinese composer Zhu Jian'er. The purpose of including this piece is to help suona enthusiasts understand the development of suona art while hoping for the emergence of even newer and more beautiful suona works.
