Acknowledged as “the finest and the most complex orchestra in Taiwan”, the Taiwan Soloist Symphony Orchestra(TSSO) was founded in 2000 by conductor Pang-Hsing Hsiao and a group of the best young musicians from southern Taiwan under the name Taiwan Soloist Chamber Orchestra(TSCO). It was their ambition to continue working together and pursuing parallel careers as soloists, members of orchestras, tutors and professors of music conservatories. In 2001, the successful businessman and philanthropist Chen-Hui Su became the president of the TSCO. The core values of his leadership goals are to internationalize, localize, and groom succeeding generations. Based on these three core values, president Su and artistic director Hsiao have led the orchestra together and evolved it to a symphony orchestra TSSO.
