Performance by Siam Sinfonietta's Flute Quintet

Scherzo—composed originally for Saxophone Quartet in 2018 later transcribed for Flute Quartet in 2020—depict the two dance-like characteristics, the jumping lively music and the folk-like groovy rhythm of Thailand’s North Eastern (Esan) music. Those two different stylistic intertwines between one another starting from the jumping melody into the folk music of Esan.

Scherzo is commissioned by Siam Saxophone Quartet, performed at 18th World Saxophone Congress in Croatia.

Instrumentation:
– Piccolo / Flute 1
– Flute 2
– Flute 3
