sms747 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Very interesting thanks, but a little surprised at the lack of comments as every other poster on here claims to 'love' the culture! ponglang and ramwong are relatively modern. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajaan Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Very interesting thanks, but a little surprised at the lack of comments as every other poster on here claims to 'love' the culture! ponglang and ramwong are relatively modern. Most of what is touted as "traditional Thai culture" nowadays can be traced back to the 1930s or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Very interesting thanks, but a little surprised at the lack of comments as every other poster on here claims to 'love' the culture! ponglang and ramwong are relatively modern.Most of what is touted as "traditional Thai culture" nowadays can be traced back to the 1930s or so. It doesn't matter, the problem with trad. dance is that as soon as it has been codified and engraved on blocks of stone, it loses its internal dynamic. It is important to constantly renew the spirit of an individual dance from generation to generation. At the same time, where possible, we should maintain a concept of what the original dance was all about. Something that was originally performed on a rice threshing floor changes completely if danced in a temple ... I taught trad dance in Europe for 18 years and had plenty of time to think about what was happening in 'Bal Folk' and other 'Trad dance' movements.

I'm not surprised at all. Expats here can't see much further than the end of the bar they are sitting at. In Isaan: just the village dance, the same everywhere, so Thais aren't particularly interested either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maya Denmore Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Some of them are quite relaxing to watch (I mean, Rabam Sukothai it's so nice) but some are pretty strange. Just an opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
