Features: As one of the professional basic courses in higher normal schools, "Singing Basic Course" has a close and complementary relationship with other professional basic courses. For example, studying "Solfège and Ear Training" necessarily improves students' sight-singing abilities, pitch accuracy, and rhythm perception. The learning of "Basic Music Theory" and "Fundamental Harmony" not only enables students to master intervals, scales, tonality, and harmonic composition but also necessarily enhances their analytical skills for vocal works. The study of "Song Analysis and Composition" directly involves the understanding and creation of vocal works, bridging the gap between silent compositions and vocal performance, thereby strengthening the connection between creation and practice. Other courses such as "Piano," "Music Appreciation," and "Choir" undoubtedly play important roles in vocal performance and teaching. Therefore, we should not view "Singing Basic Course" as an isolated course. We must leverage the independence of this discipline while fully recognizing the relevance of its interplay with other disciplines to better fulfill the teaching tasks of "Singing Basic Course."
