Thailand Ethnic Ensemble

This music presents live field recordings made in Thailand in 1973 by ethnomusicologist Deben Bhattacharya. This is absolutely original and authentic traditional Thai music using authentic instruments such as the Khawng wong yai (gong circle), Ranat ayk (boat-shaped xylophone), Ranad thum (box-shaped xylophone) and Glawng ta phon (a pair of large wooden drums).
