Music for a variety of forces from a talented young Thai-born composer.
Although still in his early thirties, the Thai-born composer Narong Prangcharoen has established an international reputation and is recognized as one of Thailands leading composers. He has received many international prizes, including the Alexander Zemlinsky International Composition Competition Prize. Prangcharoens earliest composition studies were in Thailand. He later studied at Illinois State University and at the University of Missouri in Kansas City with Chen Yi. This recording contains his better-known works and offers a snapshot of this young composers gift.
