Taipei Chinese Orchestra

The Taipei Chinese Orchestra (TCO) has long established a high reputation for its versatility and artistic excellence since its foundation in 1979 by the Department of Education, Taipei City Government. Since November 1999, the TCO has been affiliated with the Department of Cultural Affairs, Taipei City Government. In December 2001, the Orchestra moved to its permanent residence in Zhongshan Hall, one of the most famous landmark buildings in Taipei noted for its historical background and acoustical splendor. The Zhongshan Hall hosts the Orchestra's home subscription concerts. The Hall includes two performance spaces: the 1,122-seat Zhongzheng Auditorium and the 500-seat Guangfu Auditorium for chamber music concerts.

Every year, the TCO touches the lives of close to 100,000 music lovers through more than 50 regular and outreach concerts, as well as the Taipei Traditional Arts Festival, presented between April and June. As a Cultural Ambassador of Taipei, TCO has been very active in international cultural exchange activities. The orchestra has toured Japan, the US, Canada, the Philippines, Malaysia, Australia, Singapore, Britain, Germany, France, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, the Czech Republic, China, Hong Kong, and Macao.
