Features: This choir collection, featuring five-line staff notation with simplified lyrics and accompanied by piano scores, has its own unique characteristics. Although it only selects thirty choir pieces, it covers a wide range of types: it includes contemporary Chinese choir works full of the spirit of the times, as well as highly charming art songs from China's 1930s and 1940s; it features songs with strong Chinese ethnic styles, along with foreign songs and Western classical masterpieces and opera excerpts, each with its own exotic charm. It is especially worth mentioning that a significant portion of the choir pieces in this collection were commissioned by the Yuying and Beiman Choirs to be composed by renowned composers, accompanied by piano scores, with many works being published for the first time.
