The Lègèng Nóng Chamber Orchestra, centered on traditional Chinese music, is a distinguished local ensemble from Yunlin County that has cultivated the art of music for twenty years. Rooted in the community, it looks outward internationally, and is one of Yunlin’s most proactive teams in promoting musical art and culture. The orchestra began to sprout in Yunlin in January 2001. As “musical farmers,” it has deeply cultivated the neighborhood, starting from folk instruments and, through organic, diverse creation and performance, brought music into everyday life while balancing tradition and innovation. From its inception, the orchestra received the “Excellent Support Team” award from the Cultural Construction Committee and has twice been selected as a “Distinguished Performing Arts Team” of Yunlin County. Its performances span international, national, and regional music cultures, spreading the seeds of artistic aesthetics and advancing both macro‑ and micro‑level social beauty education, actively integrating music art into the public’s life. With continuous effort and refinement, the orchestra has gained even more vitality and potential after twenty years of growth and transformation, and looks forward to continuing to yield fruitful results for musical art.

In August 2020, Yunlin County Government’s “Mini‑Book Corner” welcomed the Lègèng Nóng Chamber Orchestra, sharing many selected books and hosting numerous cultural talks, workshops, and music salons. To deepen and revitalize the Lègèng Nóng “Mini‑Book Corner,” expanding it into a reading and arts‑culture exchange space, the “LeRead” initiative was created!
**LeRead – The Most Unique Reading Corner**
Traditional instruments and music desks are arranged in a charming, relaxed atmosphere, where music and words intertwine. The mini‑book corner advocates that music and literature are like rivers wandering through daily life. “LeRead” nurtures a small part of that river, watering every visitor. In the realm of time art, words and notes flow together, making reading happen in our everyday lives. Welcome to enjoy a simple, aesthetic life!
