Features: The Vocal Music Teaching Library is one of the series of Vocal Art Education Books, published by the People's Music Publishing House. This marks the beginning of a new era in the construction of teaching repertoire for vocal art education in China. The Vocal Music Teaching Library first highlights its teaching nature. Each volume of the Library consists of "General Teaching Principles," "Teaching Repertoire," and "Teaching Performance Notes" for each piece. It not only further standardizes teaching content and establishes a scientific system for the targeted teaching of repertoire, catering to different teaching selections, but it also meets the teaching requirements of various vocal methods. The Vocal Music Teaching Library also distinctly emphasizes its documentary nature. The works in the Library include both timeless masterpieces beloved by the public and influential works that have shaped the history of vocal art, thus becoming preserved repertoire for vocal teaching and performance. This volume encompasses artistic songs from the 1920s to the late 1990s, nearly a century of creation. For the works after the founding of New China, they not only reflect the era's characteristics of a specific historical period but also record the artistic features of songs from different eras, providing a wealth of well-honed repertoire for vocal teaching. In the selection process, equal importance is given to the long-standing historical background and characteristics of the works, with a greater focus on highlighting the teaching role of the repertoire. This volume is divided into two parts: the upper and lower volumes.
