Features: Folk guitar playing (singing) as one category of guitar performance, possesses rich expressiveness and is an indispensable form of musical art. In China, there are numerous enthusiasts, most of whom are young people. Due to the lack of defined standards for folk guitar playing (singing) in the past, the professional repertoire for folk guitar has been limited. From a professional perspective, the evaluation of folk guitar playing skills has also been low. Additionally, some publications lacked unified standards during their compilation, making it difficult to improve the overall playing level of folk guitar enthusiasts in China. This book, based on China's actual conditions and using professional notation standards, aims to provide guitar enthusiasts with a standardized and practical folk guitar playing manual. The works included are well-known and widely loved, covering famous popular songs and instrumental pieces from both China and abroad, as well as famous folk songs and love songs. Additionally, there is a section of guitar duets. The book is extensive, diverse in form, and varies in style, making it authoritative and filling a gap in China's professional folk guitar literature.
