The Shanghai Chinese Orchestra's PX Ruan Soloists launched its inaugural residency programme at the 20th Thailand International Composition Festival (TICF) last night with a ruan recital at the pre-college auditorium.

TICF, an annual contemporary music festival in Thailand, is hosted and presented by Mahidol University's Music College chaired by Dr Narong Prangcharoen, arguably amongst the most pre-eminent Thai composers.

The residency continues today with a chamber music concert at MACM, followed by a workshop curated and lectured by Liu Bo, principal ruan of SHCO, tomorrow morning.

The three-event residency programme is a joint initiative of Rudolph Tang, TICF and SHCO.

This is a Chinese programme with Chinese subtitles. Filmed at the recital on August 14th, 2025.
