Pianist Pun kicks off 'Sounds On Wireless'

Pianist Pun Punyasavatsut presents a piano recital featuring masterworks by Bach, Schubert and Brahms, at 140 Wireless, Witthayu Road, this Saturday at 4pm.

The recital inaugurates "Sounds On Wireless", a new concert series launched by the Royal Bangkok Symphony Music School to reflect the area's growing role as a cultural space supporting both established professional musicians and the next generation of emerging artists.

The series will showcase a diverse range of performances -- including solo, chamber, instrumental and vocal works -- spanning genres from classical to jazz.

The show will open with Bach's Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue In D Minor, a dramatic and highly imaginative work celebrated for its improvisatory freedom, harmonic boldness and intricate contrapuntal writing.

Schubert's Piano Sonata No.14 In A Minor, composed in 1823, reveals a more introspective and emotionally intense side of the composer, balancing lyrical tenderness with moments of striking turbulence and psychological depth.

Concluding the recital will be Brahms's Piano Sonata No.3 In F Minor, a monumental early masterpiece that combines symphonic grandeur with passionate lyricism and virtuosic brilliance.

Recognised for his refined artistry and entrepreneurial vision, Pun is part of a new generation of musicians seeking to reshape the role of classical music in contemporary society.

A prizewinner of the American International Paderewski Piano Competition, the Robert B. Beardsley Piano Competition and the Kawai Thailand International Piano Competition, he has performed across the US, Europe and Asia.

The upcoming recital reflects his continuing artistic journey and his commitment to performances that combine technical sophistication, expressive depth and contemporary relevance.

Tickets cost 800 baht (600 baht for students). Call 02-255-9191.
