April 26, 201511 yr Great news! What is the minimum age to attend? I'd love to bring my daughter. She liked the concert at Soi Siam and asks for violins over dinner ever since...
April 26, 201511 yr Great news! What is the minimum age to attend? I'd love to bring my daughter. She liked the concert at Soi Siam and asks for violins over dinner ever since... I may be mistaken, but I don't think there are violins in Beethoven's fifth symphony. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._5_%28Beethoven%29#Instrumentation Instrumentation The symphony is scored for piccolo (fourth movement only), two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets in B♭ and C, two bassoons, contrabassoon or double bassoon (fourth movement only), two horns in E♭ and C, two trumpets, three trombones (alto, tenor, and bass, fourth movement only), timpani (in G-C) and strings. Edit: just notice that strings means violins, however I mean to remember that violins play only a minor part in the whole symphony. Edited April 26, 201511 yr by Anthony5
April 26, 201511 yr Author Great news! What is the minimum age to attend? I'd love to bring my daughter. She liked the concert at Soi Siam and asks for violins over dinner ever since... It's six. The main point is that she can keep still and not distract other people in the audience.

Can I borrow your wikiplayer? It's classical ennit. I mean all classical's got fiddles in it, no?

April 30, 201511 yr Bach's piano works have a significant lack of a string section ("fiddles") Most all piano works are fiddle-free, regardless of who wrote it. This is about Beethoven's 5th and Anthony's new wikiplayer.
April 30, 201511 yr Tchaikovsky did something for piano and fiddles. Not sure whether it's available for wiki players.
April 30, 201511 yr I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing here, maybe I should do a wiki? Edited April 30, 201511 yr by Anthony5
May 1, 201511 yr I will (still) be out of the country this weekend so if anyone is attending this, can you come back and post about it? Thanks, NL
May 2, 201511 yr Author I will (still) be out of the country this weekend so if anyone is attending this, can you come back and post about it? Thanks, NL Can do. But there should be something about it in the local newspapers.
May 2, 201511 yr Great concert it was! Loved the Hindemith piece and the solo bassist for the second piece was fantastic. Beethoven was also played very well. Too bad that only few people showed, plenty of empty seats. Hope there will be more concerts like that soon. The venue was perfect for a classical concert.
May 2, 201511 yr I wish I could have gone, the holiday traffic made it impractical. I have gone to other classical concerts at Tiffany's and I like the venue. Hope to go in the future.

Hadn't noticed yet it took place in the afternoon, may be the reason why it was low show.
May 2, 201511 yr Most all piano works are fiddle-free...Only piano sonatas are without strings.Piano trios are often accompanied with a violin, viola or a cello. Piano concerts have a whole symphony orchestra with lots of strings go along with.
May 2, 201511 yr Well, it was said on the concert poster.... I understand, my point was actually that I consider afternoon a wrong timing for a classical concert.

Good to know so here's hoping that there's more classical adventures for Pattaya in the pipeline. Maybe their advertising needs to kick up a notch too.
