Nanyang chinese orchestra

Nanyang chinese orchestra

The Nanyang Girls' High School Chinese Orchestra (NYCO) was founded in 1977, with the aim to promote the appreciation of Chinese music and to groom outstanding musicians.

Today, the orchestra is made up more than 120 members with a full range of Chinese orchestral instruments, and holds a repertoire that ranges from full orchestral works to chamber and solo works.

The orchestra performs extensively in public concerts as well as private and school functions, not forgetting biennial concerts planned and implemented by the orchestra itself.

It has also received outstanding results in national competitions, including the prestigious Gold with Honours awards at the 2005 and 2007 Singapore Youth Festival Central Judging, ever since the Gold with Honours award was implemented. Nanyang Chinese Orchestra was also the first Chinese Orchestra to be honoured with this award.

Conductors

The orchestra is directed by alumnus and music teacher Chek Yui Hong and co-directed by Singapore Chinese Orchestra conducting assistant Lim Kiong Pin.
