Breaking regional and academic barriers, the festival invited 225 musicians, educators, conductors, and composers from music conservatories and artistic groups across the country to serve as evaluators.

The final performances were held in two parts: on Oct 26 and 27 for yangqin, bamboo flute, sheng, Chinese percussion, and suona; and on Nov 2 and 3 for guzheng, pipa, erhu, guqin, and ruan.

This festival allowed more people to experience the unique charm of Chinese traditional music and instruments, inspiring a love for and commitment to the heritage of Chinese traditional culture. The event also provided a platform for young music students to showcase their talents and learn from each other, fostering the development and preservation of Chinese music culture, according to Li Xincao, president of the China Conservatory of Music and renowned conductor.

"We hope to uncover talented instrumentalists through this platform and contribute to building a strong talent pool for Chinese instruments, enriching the teaching staff of the China Conservatory and all Chinese arts institutions," Li said.
