CHIO-TIAN FOLK DRUMS& ARTS TROUPE is a unique form of traditional Taiwanese drum entertainment. The troupe provides an unsurpassed experience to the audience to reveal our distinctiveness of Taiwanese Culture.
Chio-Tian was formed in 1995 by Chen-Jung Hsu with the ambition of creating a unique form of traditional Taiwanese drum entertainment that would be appreciated by native Taiwanese as well as people from other cultures. The Troupe originated from street performances in temple festivals. After ten years of striving to improve, innovate and mature, the Troup has become a world-class entertainment icon. The Troupe has received many entertainment awards in Taiwan . It was praised by the Taiwanese government for its superb achievements of incubating talented performers to preserve the traditional Taiwanese culture . To become a master of drumming, one must go through vigorous training that includes daily routines of running 6 miles, doing hundreds of push-ups or sit-ups, continuously hitting drums for hours, learning Taiwanese culture, and practicing martial arts and meditation. One must learn to express one's artistic creativity through one's athletic performance. Our artisans are a unique group of professionals.
We are committed to providing an unsurpassed experience to our audience to reveal the distinctiveness of Taiwanese Cultural Performance. We strive to integrate sociology, anthropology, ethnography and linguistics into an enticing blend of entertainment. |
