Instrumental Performance Major:
Among many conservatories, the Instrumental Performance major carries the most weight and has the most majors. Of course, it also has the largest number of students enrolled. The musical instrument performance major is roughly divided into two directions: Western musical instrument performance and ethnic musical instrument performance. Western musical instruments are generally divided into keyboard instruments and orchestral instruments.
Vocal performance major:
The vocal performance major is basically divided into bel canto singing, ethnic singing, popular singing and the original singing method that is just emerging nowadays. Generally speaking, bel canto singing and ethnic singing require a certain piano background and a certain level of performance, while popular singing and original singing do not have too high requirements.
In the additional examination of the college entrance examination, students must not only sing songs (bel canto, ethnic, popular singing), but also master basic knowledge of music theory and sight-singing skills of staff music.
