of pipes to increase its range and allow it to play harmony and chords. In the past each player may embellish their parts at will, but in this new orchestra, Zheng wrote specific music for each instruments or sections. One early signature tune of the music club was "Spring Flowers on Moonlit River" (春江花月夜, Chūnjiāng huāyuè yè), arranged for the ensemble by Liu Yaozhang (柳堯章) in 1925 based on an older tune for pipa. Another important figure of this period was Liu Tianhua who also formed a sizhu ensemble as part of the activity of the Society for Improving National Music he established at Peking University in 1927, and a periodical, the Music Magazine (音樂雜誌, Yīnyuè Zázhì), was founded. In a break from tradition whereby one instrument is played by only one player, more than one player per instrument may play together in the ensemble he formed. He made changes to traditional instruments such as huqin and wrote music for it, turning a folk instrument into one suitable for concert performance. Liu also wrote for the ensemble and expanded on traditional musical notation so it may be used for an orchestra, specifying ornamentation details and tempo and the use of particular instruments in specific sections.

Due to the Sino-Japanese war, the ensemble later moved to Chongqing, where it held its first public performance in 1942. The ensemble also held classes, and it quickly expanded. In order to increase the pitch range, extra instruments were invented and added to the ensemble, such as the middle-to-low range zhonghu, dahu, dihu. An eleven-hole dizi called xindi that can produce a complete chromatic scale was also invented. It became known as the BCC Chinese Orchestra, which is considered to be the first Chinese orchestra formed. The orchestra was organized along the line of a Western orchestra into a form that is recognizable today, with a conductor, full scores for musicians, and four sections – wind, plucked strings, bowed strings, and percussion. The plucked string section is unique to Chinese orchestra due to the large number of traditional Chinese lute-type instruments. The orchestra moved to Taiwan after the Communist victory in 1949. A number of folk ensembles were established in the 1950s in the PRC, the
