I only have the concert schedules up to the end of March. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any significant concerts from March 27-31. In the National Concert Hall: 27 & 28: Themes from movies (Keith Lockhart & the National Symphony Orchestra) 29: National Chung-shan University's orchestra and chorus In the Recital Hall: 27: cello recital 28: Yau-tai Huang and his works 29: clarinet recital 30: another clarinet recital 31: piano recital (If interested in any, I can give you more information.) I guess the highlight of this period is the Russian Festival Ballet. They will perform A Midsummer Night's Dream, with music by Mendelssohn, on the 27th (afternoon and evening), and Tchaikovsky's The Sleeping Beauty, on the 28th (also two shows). Performances will be in the National Theatre. If you could come a bit earlier: 20: Evelyn Glennie percussion recital 21: Mischa Maisky cello recital Or even earlier: 8: Yo-yo Ma cello recital (Bach partitas 1-3) 14: Akiko Suwanai violin recital This is actually quite a month for CM lovers in Taipei.
