On August 7 students from the MSU College of Music performed at the Royal College of Music in Bangkok. The one hundred and twenty strong MSU Chorus brought the house down with their animated Esan chorus performance, accompanied by a single piano.
Not surprisingly, instead of the usual choral performance where the choir simply ‘stands and delivers’ the ensemble introduced animation and elements of traditional Esan dance into the medley. One feels it would be almost impossible to create the performance in any other way. Esan people love to sing and when they sing they must dance."Raising the flag, yellow-gray soils together with my loyal yet. Becoming eternal love” are some of the words contained in the medley. The love of Thailand, the yellow grey soils of the Esan landscape and for their fellow Esan people are amply illustrated in these few words and were brought to life in the performance.
Any person familiar with the northeast of Thailand would instantly be able to identify with the passion and feelings expressed in the performance. Writing teacher and coach Dr. Sayan Pachar’m and the MSU Chorus are to be congratulated on their hard work and commitment in the creation of such a fine performance.It is strongly suggested you gather some friends around your computer, click on the video link, turn up the volume and enjoy the performance
