Mapletree – TENG Scholarship

A holistic programme that develops young talents age 21 and below who demonstrate a passion for Chinese music, the Mapletree-TENG Scholarship was established in 2018, and is an ongoing partnership between Mapletree Investments and The TENG Company.

The scholarship covers a rigorous training scheme of constant assessments and individual lessons with professional instructors from TENG. In addition, scholars will also be involved in community outreach programmes where they will perform at homes, dialysis centres, hospitals and hospices.

Scholars have performed at various event such as the National Day Parade, Istana Open House, President’s Challenge Launch, and the Mapletree Mid-Autumn Festival Celebrations.

Some have also gone on to win prizes at the Singapore Chinese Music Competition, such as Ee Anzhi – Dizi (Intermediate) 3rd Place (2024), Preston Ang – Suona (Intermediate) 2nd Place (2024), Li Zhixin – Zhongruan (Junior) 1st Place (2024), and Claudia Xie – Zhongruan (Junior) 3rd Place (2024).

By covering the full tuition fees of instrumental lessons, grading examinations and course materials for a period of 2 years, it aims to nurture a generation of Chinese musicians in Singapore who will contribute back to society with the skills that they have attained from this programme.
