Dvořák and Tchaikovsky

Our principal timpanist, Wannapha Yannavut, takes center stage with a performance of Miyake’s exciting “Elpis” Marimba Concerto. This concerto was commissioned and premiered by the Thailand Phil in 2011 and we are proud to perform it again in celebration of its tenth anniversary.
