Composed by Viskamol Chaiwanichsiri. This edition: pdf, streaming. 21st Century, Contest, Festival, Multicultural, World. 197 pages. Viskamol Music #1439099. Published by Viskamol Music (A0.1880203).Splash, for wind ensemble, is inspired by the Thai Songkran Festival—also known as the Thai New Year or Water Festival. Celebrated in mid-April, one of the hottest times of the year, Songkran is marked by joyful water splashing, yet it also holds deep cultural meaning as a time for family gatherings, temple visits, and paying respect to elders.
When I learned that I was awarded the Austin Symphonic Band Young Composers’ Contest 2024 and was commissioned to compose a piece for them, I looked for a common thread between Austin (TX, United States) and Thailand—both places share one thing in common: the heat! Splash was written to cool things down and to share in the spirit of this festival together.
Splash was commissioned by Austin Symphonic Band (Austin, TX) as a part of the 2024 Austin Symphonic Band Young Composers Contest Winner.
