In 1951, he entered his first singing competition, and, two years later, started formal training in Hengchun folk music. Chu Ting-shun was introduced to the piano by fellow musician Chu Hsien-chen. In 1993, Chu Ting-shun gave his first lesson in Hengchun folk music. One of his most prominent students was Chen Ming-chang. Chu won the Best Concert Award at the 14th Golden Melody Awards. Chu was named a "living national treasure" by the Taiwanese government in September 2012. He died on 26 December 2012,
