SINGAPORE<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0Mapletree Investments (\u201cMapletree\u201d or \u201cthe Group\u201d) and The TENG Company (\u201cTENG\u201d) are pleased to announce the opening of applications for the Mapletree-TENG Scholarship, which supports and empowers aspiring Singaporean Chinese musicians. For the eighth consecutive year, Mapletree extends its ongoing support to help young talents from less-privileged backgrounds pursue their passion for Chinese music. Applications are open from 1 December 2025 to 28 February 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mapletree-TENG Scholarship aims to nurture young Chinese musicians in Singapore by providing comprehensive one-to-one lessons, mentorship and performance opportunities to its recipients. Recognising that the journey of music education can be financially demanding, this scholarship plays a pivotal role in making Chinese music education more accessible. Five placements will be offered this year, each funded at S$11,000 and tenable for two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To date, 32 recipients have benefitted from the Mapletree-TENG Scholarship. Past scholars have gone on to achieve outstanding results in prestigious competitions, including the Singapore Chinese Music Competition. In the 2024 edition, four scholars \u2013 Li Zhixin, Claudia Xie, Preston Ang and Ee Anzhi \u2013 were placed within the top three of their individual categories. Scholars Yang Lin Xuan and Ang De Jin also reached the finals in their categories within the same year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Said Mr Edmund Cheng, Chairman, Mapletree: \u201cThe Mapletree-TENG Scholarship has provided meaningful support for students over time. In line with Mapletree\u2019s Corporate Social Responsibility Framework, Mapletree is pleased to continue funding the scholarship for the eighth consecutive year. We look forward to building a strong foundation for emerging scholars passionate about pursuing Chinese music and witnessing these scholars reach their fullest potential.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At TENG, we believe that every note played by our scholars is a reflection of the support, guidance and opportunities they receive. The Mapletree-TENG Scholarship reminds us that nurturing talent goes hand in hand with nurturing character \u2013 encouraging young musicians to use their gifts to serve others and strengthen our shared Singaporean cultural heritage. We remain deeply grateful to Mapletree for their unwavering partnership in shaping these future custodians of Singapore\u2019s Chinese music tradition,\u201d said Mr Yang Ji Wei, Executive Director of The TENG Company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe scholarship has provided me with opportunities to have regular lessons and consistent guidance, allowing me to explore more challenging repertoires. This has helped me to build confidence in my playing and encouraged me to develop my own unique style and interpretation,\u201d said Yang Lin Xuan, recipient of the 2024 Mapletree-TENG Scholarship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to covering music lesson fees, the scholarship also supports course materials and examination fees. Applications close on 28 February 2026, and shortlisted candidates will be notified of their interview and audition date by 9 March 2026.
