With the theme of “Music of Taiwan” the festival hopes to let the world listen to the voice of Taiwan by the series of different performances and activities.
Taiwan has been the hub of the world trade route since the 17th century, as well as the juncture of the Eastern and Western cultures that make Taiwanese culture a part of the global community. This unique position had made Taiwan a desirable land for different countries and immigrations for past centuries that enriches the creative elements in its own culture.
Music plays an important role in any culture. It tells stories of how a society has transformed and the lives of its people, their love, sorrow, values, perspectives and memories. The National Museum of Taiwan History will present the ordinary lives of Taiwanese people by combining the music and historical scenes from traditional times to modern, to see the changes of affections of the people during the past 100 years.
