Etymology

The character 鼟, pronounced as 'tēng,' is one of the Chinese language’s most intricate characters. It symbolises the sound of a drum in ancient Chinese culture [3] and represents TENG's aim of 'uniting cultures and empowering future generations of musicians and audiences in Singapore and beyond.' [4]

History

After winning individual championship titles at the biennial National Chinese Music Competition that was organised by the National Arts Council, Samuel Wong and Yang Ji Wei could no longer compete individually in the competition. They then formed The TENG Chinese Chamber Ensemble with other soloists and competed in the Ensemble category in 2004 and came in first. [5] After the win, some members of the ensemble formed The TENG Company to create and develop projects related to Chinese instrumental music. [6] In 2009, The TENG Company formed its performing arm, The TENG Ensemble. [7]

In 2015, the company was registered as a charity, [8] and Temasek Holdings became its patron. [9] Between 2015 and 2017, it received National Arts Council's Seed Grant. [10] The company was mentioned during the 2015 Singapore National Day Rally by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong for "creating a uniquely Singaporean sound by injecting new elements into traditional culture" during the segment on Singapore's bilingual policy.
