Eason Enterprises was awarded the Singapore Excellence Awards 2013/2014.
A small beginning with a big belief.
Eason Music began in 1978 with a simple hope: that Chinese music could have a place in everyday life. It started with our founder, Mr Tan Chin Siong, who believed that music should be shared, understood and enjoyed — no matter your background or age.
What followed was a journey shaped by people, relationships and a deep love for traditional instruments.
1978
Eason Enterprises was founded. Our founder, Mr Tan Chin Siong travelled through Shanghai, Beijing, Suzhou, Wuhan and Guangzhou to learn from reputable makers and bring quality instruments to Singapore.1980s
Chinese music was still niche. Mr Tan spent countless hours teaching, explaining and repairing instruments for students, schools and enthusiasts who were just beginning to discover them.1990s
Interest in Chinese orchestra grew in schools. We began supporting teachers and music committees through instrument setup, repair, guidance and ensemble formation. Many school CCAs took root during this time.2000s
Eason’s work expanded beyond Singapore — exporting instruments, helping overseas learners, and supporting musicians locally with workshops, performances and educational outreach.2010s
Mr Tan’s son, Sung Wah, joined the family business, growing our online presence and opening up learning opportunities for students from all over the world.Today
We teach, repair, perform and support communities across Singapore and beyond. Our mission remains the same: to keep culture alive, one learner and one performance at a time.
Through every change, one thing has stayed constant: we believe music is personal and relationships matter. We continue to walk this journey with learners, teachers, parents, musicians and friends who value the beauty of Chinese musical heritage.
We’re grateful for every person who has been part of our story — and we look forward to growing with you.
