Biography

Lin Chia Ching graduated from the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Taipei Technical College (now the Department of Mechanical Engineering of

Taipei City to join the band's performance, and then hurrying to the Shenao Thermal Power Plant in the early morning to go to work the next day. As the number of arrangements increased, Lin Chia Ching resigned from TEPCO to concentrate on arranging and composing, and also worked as a bandleader at the National Hotel Night Club..[1] In 1969, he was recruited to organize the CTV Big Band for the newly launched CTV.[2][3] In April 1970, the CTV Big Band was officially formed, with Lin Chia-ching as the conductor and leader of the CTV Big Band.[4]

In addition to being the conductor and leader of the CTV Big Band, Lin Chia-ching has produced a number of CTV music programs such as "The Five-Line Spectrum"(Mandarin: 五線譜) , "The Golden Five-Line Spectrum"(Mandarin: 黃金五線譜) , "Flying Notes"(Mandarin: 飛揚的音符) , and "Music from the Heart"(Mandarin: 樂自心中來) , and has also composed pop songs, and has been involved in record production and arranging, and was well known for her refreshingly simple and elegant style of arranging between the 1960s and 1970s.[5] In 1975, the theme song for the Taiwan film On the Waterfront (Mandarin: 在水一方) – "On the Waterfront", sung by Jiang Lei (Mandarin: 江蕾), with lyrics by Chiung Yao, and composed by Lin Chia-ching – was released. Many people covered the song in the years to come, including Teresa Teng and Lee Pik Wah (Mandarin: 李碧華).

In January 1980, Lin Chia-ching mentioned his reasons for focusing on writing

pop songs: "On the one hand, I love music; on the other hand, I thought it was bad enough, and if no one else was doing it, it would be even more hopeless," he said," in an industrial and commercial society, most people's mental stimulation comes from television, and the entertainment provided by variety and singing programs accounts for a large proportion of the entertainment, so songs sung on television have an absolute impact on the public, and the promotion of popular, healthy and elegant songs is necessary, "We have to let the audience feel that there is still some significance in the viewing experience. He also disagrees with the view that "we already have a lot of songs now, so we don't need to create new ones" or "we need to create songs for the audience a hundred years from now", he says: "The old school and the idealist are both wrong. The former is conservative and retains only the past; the latter is dreamy and sees only a distant future; both are unsound thinking. He is proud to say that he has never composed vulgar songs, and that the characteristics of "elegant, living, popular but not vulgar" emphasized by CTV in composing the songs this time are his self-requirements.[6]

In May 1981, Lin Chia-ching mentioned his journey of composing

Theme Song of "Little Gua-du"(Mandarin: 小瓜呆), the naive and pitiful muppet in CCTV's children's program "Pei Pei Theater" (Mandarin: 貝貝劇場), was the first children's song he composed, and also one of his favorites. He said that when creating a cartoon song, he would first understand the background of the story, the personality of the protagonist and then create: for example, science fiction cartoons such as "Gatchaman" and "Triton of the Sea" are more suitable for elementary school audiences, so the theme song has a higher pitch, fast melody and the flavor of a pop song;[7] "Nobody's Boy: Remi" is an ethical cartoon, which is more suitable for elementary school audiences, so the theme song has a slow tempo with a strong humanistic flavor. The theme song has a slow tempo and contains a strong human flavor.[8]

In December 1982, Lin Chia-ching said about members of the TTV Big Band, CTV Big Band, and CTV Big Band playing at major restaurants on a

lip-synching, Lin Chia-ching said, "TV bands are different from record label bands. Record bands have winds, strings, and in some cases violins, so even if you lip-synch on TV, it's not realistic – the picture doesn't match the sound, and the flavor is completely different. So we hope that singers will sing live if they want to sing, and that production units should focus on musicality and not just entertainment.[9]
"
