Principal Zhang Renze said that not only domestically, but also the wind music class of Beixing Junior High School has performed outstandingly on the international stage. As early as 2016, their participation in the Prague Music Season in the Czech Republic was highly acclaimed. In 2018, under the leadership of the former principal Zhang Jinlong, he was invited to the International Art Season in Vienna to perform in the Vienna Golden Hall, demonstrating the excellence of wind music art in Chiayi City. This kind of international exchange not only improves students’ performance skills, but also cultivates their abilities in designing programs, arranging activities, and team division, stimulates their creativity, and realizes the goal of whole-person education.
