Music students need to have a clear goal

Pop singer-songwriter Tan Weiwei was invited to share her views on musical education at an international music summit in Beijing recently, as she is regarded as a good example of a music-major graduate.

The pop star, a vocal performance major who graduated from the Sichuan Conservatory of Music in 2001, spoke about her school days and also about the music scene in the country.

At the event, Tan asked the audience: "What's your goal when it comes to learning music? Passion for music or the pursuit of fame?"
