Membership in 2020 was 44, made up of many with silver hair, who have developed their love for singing and staying connected. Most members sang in the chorus for the first time in their life, after becoming a TaiHsin member. Under the able tutelage of former and current conductors, the chorus amassed a repertoire of over 100 songs and sang many of them in public concerts. TaiHsin members share a common heritage through their love for their birthplace, their native tongue and strong family values. Over the years, TaiHsin members have also developed a strong bond with each other and fondly named their rehearsal facility TaiHsin's Home, where members share personal stories and lend support to each other, behaving like an extended family.
