Features: This is a comprehensive and systematic practical teaching series of wind music in China, covering eleven sections of wind ensembles and ensemble training. Subsequently, the published collections of ensemble and chamber music compositions will enrich the repertoire of various ensemble and chamber music types. It is the result of close collaboration between dozens of wind music experts and several music editors, years of effort, three revisions, and painstaking writing. Our efforts are aimed at one goal—whether it is the solo edition or the ensemble edition, it should be the best. Our writing philosophy is to integrate contemporary international wind music teaching concepts, starting from the practicalities of wind music education in China, writing as we teach, generally avoiding theoretical analysis and discussion. Emphasis is placed on visuality and operability. The text and exercise examples are concise and accurate, leaving no room for ambiguity. Accompanied by audio-visual teaching materials, this series of books achieves self-teaching effects. The training content of "Ensemble Class" begins from the 13th lesson of each section. Every two lessons of the solo section include one lesson of ensemble training. It also provides separate scores for ensemble lessons, greatly facilitating the implementation of ensemble classes. Here, we sincerely thank all the experts, predecessors, and friends from all walks of life who have shown concern, support, and enthusiastic guidance. Special thanks are also extended to Mr. Fu Gengchen, Chairman of the China Music Association, for his affirmation and support.
