PRINCESS GALYANI VADHANA INSTITUTE OF MUSIC Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music, Thailand, was initiated in 2007 as a royal project celebrating the occasion of the 84th birthday of Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana Krom Luang Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra. Following her royal vision to educate new audiences as well as developing an international standard for Thai musicians, the institute aims to create platforms for students, musicians, professionals and general audiences in order to exchange their musical experiences, make dialogues and share their love of music together. The institute, currently, offers two creatively designed Bachelor and Master of Music programs where students would learn to interact and to integrate the existing tools in order to find creative solutions or new innovation for their questions, and to promote deeper understanding of classical music, within the contemporary context of the World. Situated near the ionic Rama VIII bridge and the historic Bang Yi Khan area, Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music not only aims to be a leader in integrating and crossing music with other disciplines but to maintain history of traditional and classical music within the society through outreach and music for society projects.

PRINCESS GALYANI VADHANA AND CLASSICAL MUSIC “On ne peut atteindre ni à l’art ni à la sagesse si l’on ne s’est pas adonné à leur étude” (One cannot attain art of wisdom if one has not devoted oneself to their study) - a quote by Democritus was one of Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana Krom Luang Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra’s favourite quote which summarize who Her Royal Highness was. Passed away in 2008, Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana Krom Luang Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra had left many legacies that can still be felt strongly in today’s Thai society. Believing that lifelong learning is important for human development, Her Royal Highness’ activities focused on promoting education, social works, healthcare, liberal arts, and cultural activities. Aside from these activities, Her Royal Highness’s love of classical music was well evidenced. To classical musicians and organizations in Thailand, she was the greatest supporter behind its development. Born in London on Sunday, 6 May 1923, Princess Galyani Vadhana was the eldest sister to the two late kings of Thailand, King Ananthamahidon Phra Atthamaramathibodin, and King Bhumibhol the Great. Her Royal Highness was exposed to classical music at a very young age, through piano learning and listening to classical music while finishing her school’s assignments. This led to her deep understanding of classical music. Upon moving back to Thailand, Her Royal Highness would attend classical music performances when abled in order to support classical musicians and organizations. In 2000, Her Royal Highness donated her personal budget to support music learning for youth which, later, became Fund for Classical Music Promotion Under the Patronage of HRH Princess Galyani Vadhana. This funding has been the springboard in developing young Thai classical musicians who would play important roles in raising the standard of Thai classical musicians today. In order to continue Her Royal Highness’ wishes to promote classical music and to make it sustainable within the context of Thailand, Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music was established.

Princess Galyani Vadhana International Music Festival inaugurates In 2020 as part of a new project initiation by Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music (PGVIM) which aims to continue its mission in realizing Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana’s vision in promoting and supporting classical music in Thailand. The second festival is part of a three-year plan to celebrate the centennial celebration of Princess Galyani Vadhana in 2023 by being an international stage for classical music performance. Furthermore, the festival aims to support musicians and artists by providing platforms to show their creativity as well as challenging them to be more proactive in promoting their works to Thai society. In order to achieve an ecosystem that supports music creations, the business model pitching competition seeks ideas from promoters, creators, or the business sector to fulfil the goal. 6
This year's festival inaugurates the festival logo which was inspired by the iconic Rama VIII bridge, where Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music is located, the hidden G-clef within the institute logo, and by Saeng Neung Kue Rung Ngam (แสงหนึ่งคือรุ้งงาม), a song about Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana. The song compares the princess to an invisible light that brings out the hidden beauty and goodness when reflected upon. Thus, the logo represents the festival's aim, to be a place to support classical music and to be a platform to showcase the talents of the next generation musicians.
Message from
Clinical Professor Emeritus Piyasakol Sakolsatayadorn, M.D. Chairman of Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music’s Council
I am pleased to welcome you to Princess Galyani Vadhana International Music Festival 2021. The project was initiated in honor of the late Princess Galyani Vadhana Krom Luang Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra who tirelessly supported classical music and classical musicians in Thailand. This initiative is in accordance with Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music’s mission to fulfil Her Royal Highness’ wishes in raising the standard of Thai classical musicians and promoting the international standard of music performance to people of all ages. The ongoing pandemic has taken its toll on classical music and the music industry as they are the first to be halted and are likely to be the last to resume. Musicians and music organizations have been struggling to survive. With an intention to help generate a music industry that is more sustainable along with the missions of Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music and the development of the Creative Economy in Thailand, this year's festival continues to look for innovative business model and to challenge classical musician to be innovative through Business Model Competition and the Performance Proposal Competition. Aside from enjoying the performances by our artists, I hope that you will find these missing pieces to be beneficial to the development of Thailand’s classical music industry as a whole and where everyone supports each other to strengthen the root of classical music for the future. Once again, welcome to the second Princess Galyani Vadhana International Music Festival. I hope you have an enjoyable time with great music and a delightful experience.

Message from
Associate Professor Khunying Wongchan Phinaitisatra
Acting President of Princess Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music
It has been more than a year since our freedom has been limited due to the lockdown. It disrupts the development of classical music and prevents live music performance. In spite of that, music was one of our friends during the difficult time. Furthermore, there were innovations both in music making and listening due to the limitation which led to the new norm. The question is if there were another disruption, what would the next normality be? During the planning of the Princess Galyani Vadhana International Music Festival, the question, along with the institute’s missions, was integrated into the activities plan.
8
The four-day-long festival offers three main activities which are held online due to the current restriction. The first two, Business Model Pitching competition and Performance Proposal competition, seeks to answer the above question by challenging classical musicians to be proactive and to find solutions in making classical music sustainable. In the evening of each day, you will enjoy four carefully curated performances presented by our guest artists and important individuals who contributed to classical music development in Thailand. Additionally, I would like to sincerely thank the Fund for Classical Music Promotion Under Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana for supporting the festival opening concert. As Princess Galyani Vadhana centennial celebration is approaching in 2023, I hope that Princess Galyani Vadhana International Music Festival will be the place to not only celebrate the late Princess’ legacy but to create a new history that would help transform classical music in Thailand. Thank you for your participation and have a great time.

COMPETITION “ I wish you all to realize that the prize is a part of the reward gained from a competition, but the real reward you receive is the knowledge, experience, and skills that are of great value. I hope it will continue to be used to benefit society and the nation.” Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana (given on 9 December 2002)
26
As part of the festival’s objective to realize Her Royal Highness’ vision in promoting classical music to Thai society aim to explore possibilities for making classical music sustainable for the current and future contexts in Thailand. In order to create a path for the future of classical music in Thailand, one might wonder what help might it need. The pandemic has been with us for more than one and a half years now and it has changed the landscape of music making. The conditions for live music experience both for performers and audiences are much more stricken which led to the decrease in revenue. Furthermore, the music industry is often the first to be halted and the last to resume. Musicians and creatives are struggling to survive. However, is that the main problem preventing the growth of classical music in Thailand? Was there a problem before the pandemic but being fastened by it? Classical music and its musicians in Thailand have been struggling long before the current pandemic begins. From not getting enough support or being seen as a genre requiring a deeper understanding with strict concert etiquette, the demand for classical music is not enough to support Thai classical musicians where many of them had sadly changed their careers. At the same time, classical musicians are only trained to perfect their performing skills which might not be enough for the fast changing world. The competitions aim to find possibilities in generating classical music industry, creating more demand, adding more value, to make it more sustainable within the context of Thai society.
PERFORMANCE AND PROMOTION COMPETITION Introduction The Performance and Promotion Competition, inaugurated in 2020, aims to encourage Thai classical musicians to propose and present their fresh approach to classical music as well as to realize the importance of promotion through marketing planning and public relations that will help increase the artistic value and the performer’s reputation further. This year competition challenges the ensemble, an average of 30 years old, with integrating Thai elements into their classical music tradition where the proposal, the promotional plan, and the performance will be adjudicated by five highly experienced experts that are well respected in the field of music industry, public relation, and promotion to be an honorary adjudicator.
