ASEAN Pride Echoes in China: Dean’s Composition Featured at China-ASEAN Music Festival!

The College of Music, Mahidol University, joins in celebrating a remarkable international triumph!

The composition by Dean Dr. Piyawat Louilarpprasert was prominently featured at the Closing Ceremony Concert of The 14th China-ASEAN (Nanning) Music Festival 2025, performed to a sold-out audience of 2,500 seats who gave a long and resounding standing ovation!

This achievement is a powerful synergy of talent from Mahidol and ASEAN:

World Premiere: The KerkCom (2025) Piano Concerto, a commissioned work by the Dean for the Guangxi Symphony, had its global debut.

Proud Alumni Soloist: Featuring Mr. Kerksakul Jaree, an accomplished pianist, alumnus, and guest instructor whose performance brought immense pride to Mahidol on the world stage.

TPO Guest Conductor: Conducted by Lien Boon Hua, a distinguished Guest Conductor of the TPO and a source of pride for Singapore and Southeast Asia.

This success underscores the exceptional caliber of our faculty, alumni, and ASEAN artists globally. It signifies an open door for future world-class collaborations in music and arts between ASEAN (Thailand/Mahidol) and China.

Mahidol Music is ready to foster continuous global collaboration, embodying the vision “The World is Here…at Mahidol.”
