Having studied music from a young age, Dr. Yifen Liao, a dentist practicing in Taitung, recognized the difficulties in nurturing musical talent in the region and the limited performance opportunities for local musicians. Additionally, many children living in remote areas had never seen or played instruments due to a lack of resources. In response, Dr. Liao and a group of like-minded music enthusiasts founded the "Taitung Echo Orchestra" in 2014, aiming to bridge the growing urban-rural resource gap.
