The source of inspiration for Thailand Impressions was a trip that the composer made to the magnificent country of Thailand. The three movements reflect the many different aspects of this fascinating part of the world including Bangkok - both modern and antique, Buddhist temples and the infamous Burma railway.

Een reis door Thailand brengt ons eerst naar het oude en moderne Bangkok. In deel twee komt het ondoorgrondelijke en menslievende gedachtegoed van het boeddhisme aan bod. De Birma-spoorlijn is het onderwerp van het derde deel. Dezewerd aangelegd door duizenden dwangarbeiders, de ‘treinmuziek’ wordt dan ook twee keer onderbroken door het koraal Aus tiefer Not. Een mooi werk over een veelzijdig land met een rijke geschiedenis.

Die Inspirationsquelle zu Thailand Impressions war eine Reise des Komponisten in dieses herrliche Land. In drei Sätzen nimmt die Musik den Hörer mit auf eine Reise durch das alte und neue Bangkok, zu einer Zeremonie in einem Buddha-Tempel und entlang einer historischen Bahnlinie. Lassen Sie sich von Thailand Impressions in ein modernes, geheimnisvolles und exotisches Land entführen!

Kees Schoonenbeek s’est inspiré d’un voyage en Tha lande pour la composition de ce triptyque. Le premier tableau est consacré Bangkok, ville agitée et mystérieuse où l’ancien et le moderne demeurent côte côte. Le second tableau, plus mystique, dépeint l’insondable mystère et la conception humanitariste des croyances bouddhiques. Le troisième tableau suit la ligne de chemin de fer qui mène vers la frontière du Myanmar via le Col des Trois Pagodes. Des milliers de prisonniers de guerre et de travailleurs forcés périrent dans la construction de cette ligne de fret.
