    repertoires that

    emerged in its

    present form within

    the royal centers of

    Central Thailandsome 800 years ago.

    Since the beginning of the modern Bangkokperiod, composers' names have been knownand, since around the turn of the century, many

    major composers have recorded their works innotation.

    Musicians

    1. The composer Luang Pradit Phairau (1881

    1954) used localized forms of cipher (number)notation

    2. Other composers such as Montri Tramote(19081995) used standard western staffnotation.

    3. King Prajatipok (Rama VII, 18831941) andKing Bhumibol Adulyadej (1927), whosecompositions have been more often for jazzbands than classical Thai ensembles.

    Traditional or folk

    Luk thung

    Luk thung, or Thai country music, developed in the

    mid-20th century to reflect daily trials and

    tribulations of rural Thais. Ponsri Woranut and

    Suraphol Sombatcharoen were the genre's first big

    stars, incorporating influences from, Asia. Many of

    the most popular artists have come from the central

    city of Suphanburi, including megastar Pumpuang

    Duangjan, who pioneered electronic luk thung.

    Mor lam

    Mor lam is the dominant folk music of Thailand'snorth-eastern Isan region, which has a mainlyLao population. It has much in common with lukthung, such as its focus on the life of the ruralpoor. It is characterized by rapid-fire, rhythmicvocals and a funk feel to the percussion. Thelead singer, also called a mor lam, is most oftenaccompanied by the khaen.

    There are about fifteen regional variations ofmor lam, plus modern versions such as mor lam

    sing. Some conservatives have criticized theseas the commercialization of traditional cultures.

    Kantrum

    The people of Isan are also known for kantrum,

    which is much less famous than mor lam. Kantrum

    is played by Khmer living near the border with

    Cambodia. It is a swift and very traditional dance

    music. In its purest form, cho-kantrum, singers,percussion and tro (a type of fiddle) dominate the

    sound. A more modern form using electric

    instrumentation arose in the mid-1980s. Later in the

    decade, Darkie became the genre's biggest star,

    and he crossed into mainstream markets in the later1990s.

    1. Phleng pheua chiwit

    By the 1960s, Western rock was popular and Thai artists began

    imitating bands like Cliff Richard & the Shadows; this music wascalled wong shadow, and it soon evolved into a form of Thai popcalled string. Among the groups that emerged from this period wasThe Impossibles. The '70s also saw Rewat Buddhinan beginning touse the Thai language in rock music as well as the rise of protestsongs called phleng pheua chiwit (songs for life).

    The earliest phleng pheua chiwit band was called Caravan, and theywere at the forefront of a movement for democracy. In 1976, policeand right wing activists attacked students at Thammasat University;Caravan, along with other bands and activists, fled for the rural hills.There, Caravan continued playing music for local farmers, and wrotesongs that would appear on their later albums.

    In the 1980s, phleng pheua chiwit re-entered the mainstream with a

    grant of amnesty to dissidents. Bands like Carabao became best-sellers and incorporated sternly nationalistic elements in their lyrics.By the 1990s, phleng pheua chiwit had largely fallen from the top ofthe Thai charts, though artists like Pongsit Kamphee continued tocommand a large audience.

    CentralSaw sam sai

    The saw sam sai (Thai: ; also spelled sawsamsai, and occasionally called simply sam sai;literally "three stringed fiddle") is a traditional bowedstring instrument of Thailand. Its body is made froma special type of coconut covered on one end withanimal skin, and it has three silk strings. Typically,the player glues a jewel onto the skin before playing,to reduce the skin's resonance.photo

    The saw sam sai is in the saw family of Thai fiddles,which also includes the saw u and saw duang.

    It is the hardest to play among the 4 types of ThaiSaw: Saw U, Saw Duang, and Sa Lor. This isbecause the bow is not attached, and one must"break" their wrist back and forth to change strings-not tilting the bow. Because of this, it is frequentlyused as a prop in pictures to show knowledge or ahigh social status.

    It is related to a very similar Cambodian instrumentcalled tro Khmer.
