Beigang had been a busy port town since the seventeenth century. The popularity of the Mazu Temple and active amateur musical troupes (tsú-tē troupes) both added to the prosperity of the town. Musical troupes in Beigang include lâm-kuán, pak-kuán, sip-sam-khiang, Beijing Opera, káu-kah-á-hì, kua-á-hì, and western music. In this paper, I discuss the classification and development of amateur musical troupes in the Japanese Colonial Era. During the Japanese Colonial Era, the types and number of tsú-tē troupes both increased, integrating tradition and modernity. In the annual Mazu procession of Chaotian Temple, the tsú-tē troupes fell into "South," "North," and "West" groups according to their respective styles and positions in the social order. Activities of the tsú-tē troupes, though temporarily curbed by the Kominka movement of late Colonial Japanese Era, had never died down.
