Features: This examination syllabus is divided into nine levels, with levels and 2 being beginner-level; levels 4, 5, and 6 are intermediate; levels 7, 8 are advanced. After level 9, our institution has set an additional performance diploma level, which surpasses the highest level set by all domestic examination institutions and reaches a performance level suitable for professional development. The compilation of this examination syllabus has the following characteristics:
1. Each level includes prescribed etudes for examination, progressing from simple to complex, systematically training the conventional techniques of the flute to help candidates build a solid foundation. In the early stages, the repertoire includes folk songs, short pieces, and parts for small ensembles; while in the intermediate to advanced stages, it features flute solos in various styles.
2. A combination of practicality and (interest). The etudes are composed and selected primarily to meet the technical training needs of the flute, while also considering the monotony learners may feel during practice. Therefore, most etudes have melodic appeal, making them more effective when performed as short pieces or mini-musics.
3. Modern works are incorporated into the advanced-level training. Candidates can broaden their artistic horizons and understand the development of the flute, enriching and diversifying their learning to meet the demands of modern society.
4. For the repertoire section, each piece includes performance suggestions, explaining the technical highlights of different styles to help candidates accurately convey the essential content of the music within limited practice time.
We hope that flute learners will continue to strive and make progress, successfully pass all levels of examinations, and achieve greater accomplishments in their future flute studies.
