Mahajanaka International Opera Gala Trailer
The concert will be on Dec 5th, 2010 at CENTRAL WORLD PLAZA - 6pm
Delicious bonbons from operas in the first half including perennial favorites like the Habañera from Carmen and Nessun Dorma from Turandot are followed by the first performance in 12 years of Somtow Sucharitkul's MAHAJANAKA SYMPHONY, originally composed to celebrate the 6th Cycle of His Majesty. The symphony is inspired by the Mahajanaka story, one of the Jataka Tales, as adapted by His Majesty and published twelve years ago.
The performance of this tribute to His Majesty, in the very place where tragic political events played out a few months ago, symbolized reconciliation, rebirth, and hope for the nation's future.
