Features: This is a five-line staff score collection published in mainland China, specifically designed for instrumental performance. It includes 868 famous compositions from ancient to modern times, both Chinese and foreign, such as: film and television music, pop songs, folk songs from around the world, symphonies, ballets, operas, musicals, dance tunes, instrumental pieces, and children's songs, etc. Each piece is marked with chords, making it suitable for professional and amateur musicians as well as various medium and small-sized ensembles. In the past, ensembles primarily performed in theaters. Over the past two decades since the reform and opening-up, the number of performances for celebrations, leisure, entertainment, and commercial events has greatly increased, with venues mostly being hotels, restaurants, karaoke bars, and shopping malls. Judging solely by the time, location, and number of performances, celebrations, leisure, entertainment, and commercial events have far surpassed theater performances. The information provided in this book is quite extensive. Searching for the names of these Chinese and foreign songs, film and television titles, composers, performers, countries, and regions can be time-consuming and labor-intensive. However, seeing the completed collection of scores as a small dictionary of tunes brings great satisfaction.
