In recent years, the construction and research of choral conducting courses in Chinese normal universities have achieved significant results, driven by the reform of higher education. To comprehensively understand the current state of research on choral conducting courses in Chinese normal universities and to reveal gaps and deficiencies in existing research, this paper systematically organizes and summarizes the main research outcomes of choral conducting courses in Chinese normal universities from 2000 to 2024, classified by similar research topics. It is hoped that this will provide some references for further research and optimization of choral conducting courses in China.
