Features: Choral art is both a collective activity where numerous choir members cooperate and collaborate with each other, and an artistic form that utilizes the strengths of choir members and different vocal sections to create a cohesive sound, express emotions, and shape musical imagery. As the central figure in choral activities, the conductor leads the choir in creative performances. To meet the needs of choral and conducting instruction in normal universities and to facilitate music enthusiasts in learning about choral singing and conducting, the author compiled the book "Choral and Conducting." Focusing on teaching, practice, and appreciation of choral and conducting, the book systematically introduces relevant knowledge and techniques. Additionally, a selection of classic choral works from both China and abroad with diverse forms, styles, and significant teaching and performance value has been curated to meet the demands of choral and conducting education and practice. These highly artistic choral works have played a tremendous role in the development of choral art in China.
