Since the new Tainan Railway Station opened, it’s been filled with live music. People have been showing off their skills at a piano in the station, with other instrumentalists and singers joining in. Travelers often stop to record the impromptu performances, praising the musical talent the southern ancient city has to offer.

People stop to listen to the piano as it echoes through the train station.

Another musician pulls out their violin, joining the pianist to play the theme song from a Japanese anime. The duo attracted a large audience.

In another impromptu performance, an erhu and a pipa player formed a trio with the piano, bringing local music to the station.

Another pianist was later joined by a middle-aged man and young woman who started singing together, turning the station into a concert hall. This public piano in the lobby of Tainan’s new main train station has been busy, with many people eager to play it. Travelers stop to listen and record the performances, sharing Tainan’s musical talent online. Some even recognized one of the musicians.

This is Chen Chun-hao, a blind pianist who received the President Education Award in 2020. He’s currently studying music and returned to the station several days in a row to play.

Talented musicians have taken turns showing off their skills, filling the station with music and turning it into an impromptu performance space.
