» Has there ever been a more miraculous tunesmith than film composer John Williams? Following a fantastic evening of complete immersion in his best-known movie themes in the company of the marvellous Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra under the commanding baton of resident conductor Dr Vanich Potavanich, the answer last week was surely an unequivocal "No!". In yet another sold-out concert at the Thailand Cultural Centre on Nov 13, there were indeed some terrifying moments when the "Dark Side" was unleashed, however, for the most part, this was an evening of unadulterated, joyful reverie and fond recollections of all those treasured moments when we experienced these magical soundtracks for the first time in the movie theatre. The RBSO truly revelled in "Movie Themes By John Williams".

An academic life
Life, Chris Baker, Published on 16/08/2019
» Charles "Biff" Keyes is exceptional. Among the foreign researchers who first came to study Thailand over half-a-century ago, few are now regularly read and cited today. Their works have aged. Academic fashions have changed. Their names have slowly faded. But anyone wanting to understand Thailand's Northeast today will still read Isan: Regionalism In Northeastern Thailand, first published in 1967 as a modest "data paper". This can partly be attributed to Keyes' staying power. He continued to teach, write and regularly visit Thailand until a handful of years ago. But it's also due to the book's quality, Biff's engaging personality, and his major role in the development of the study of Southeast Asia.
