REPORTER:  

A Taiwanese orchestra is bringing local sounds to the world in its first Europe tour.

 

OneSong is the only Taiwanese classical music ensemble dedicated to playing both local traditional songs and modern compositions. The group will head to Vienna, Prague, Dresden and Berlin in October, after visiting Japan last year. The tour is part of its Sound from Formosa project to perform at ten of the world’s leading concert halls.

 

Lee Che-yi (MUSIC DIRECTOR, ONESONG ORCHESTRA):  

From traditional songs  

to old classics and Taiwan’s campus folk songs  

or even Indigenous music  

and original works by Taiwanese composers  

we’re introducing audiences around the world  

to the depth and breadth of Taiwanese music.

 

REPORTER:  

OneSong will hold three concerts in Taipei, Taichung, and Kaohsiung in September ahead of the Europe tour.
