» In the presence of their inspirational and extremely supportive Royal Patron, Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya, the Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra gave the final concert of their hugely successful 2019 season earlier this month in the Thailand Cultural Centre, featuring two of Johannes Brahms' mightiest orchestral creations. The first half of "Monumental Brahms" consisted of the Double Concerto For Violin And Cello In A Minor Op.102, a grandiose work of such weight that an overture wasn't required in order to balance the imposing Symphony No.4 In E Minor Op.98 in the second half, in which the RBSO and music director Michel Tilkin gave a magnificent rendition of the composer's concluding symphonic statement.

Strong field of films match up against Roma
Life, Kong Rithdee, Published on 25/01/2019
» Five films from five countries have been shortlisted for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Oscars, with the winner to be read out on Feb 24 (morning of Feb 25 Thailand time). In a way, this is a no-brainer: Roma is a clear favourite, though that leads to another complication: with the Netflix-backed Mexican film also being nominated for Best Picture, can the beloved Roma win both categories? Not to mention that Alfonso Cuaron is also a front runner to win the Best Director prize, a likelihood that only widens the smile on Netflix's 2.35:1-ratio face (the film is still showing at House RCA, as well as on your Netflix account).
