After that, young students from Taiwan continued to go to Salzburg Orff Academy or other European colleges to study this teaching method. Especially after Mr. Lin Rongde met Mr. Orff, he came back to vigorously promote it. With the efforts of many colleagues who are enthusiastic about this cause, Next, Taiwan has made great achievements, especially in preschool education and teacher training. It has published a large number of teaching materials that apply Orff principles and combine local culture. In 1992, the Orff Educational Society was also established to unite other organizations.

Later, Mrs. Orff recalled that he could not imagine how the Chinese could find this phone number, nor did he expect that Mr. Orff, who had rarely seen visitors, would readily agree to this uninvited visit. This was a meeting of historic significance. Mr. Orff had a mysterious love for the Chinese culture in the far east. They hit it off immediately.

Mr. Orff also told Hou that his set of textbooks has been translated and used in more than 50 countries around the world, and textbooks have been published in 16 languages. However, what he regrets most is that so far there is a lack of teaching materials from the East. The Chinese version of the ancient great power-…·. Orff personally arranged Professor Liao’s visit to Orff College. With his keenness and intelligence, Professor Liao immediately realized the powerful vitality of this refreshing education system. In 1980, Professor Si returned to China. As a well-known expert in the history of Western music in China, he devoted his main energy to introducing and disseminating Orff's music education system. In addition to translating, he also personally wrote books based on Orff's educational principles. A batch of teaching materials, teacher training courses were held, and lectures were given all over the country... In particular, outstanding Orff teachers from Germany and Austria were personally contacted to come to China to give lectures and train teachers. The introduction of Orff's music education system gave my country's music education a higher starting point in the initial stage of reform, facing the world's best education system, and greatly shortened the process of my country's music education reform.
