Studio Ensemble Laboratory aims to create a space for students and learners to discover musical experiences while perceiving more about ourselves. Together with Roong Aroon School, we have implemented a project-based music study course, developing ideas for integrating music with people as well as using music as a tool for understanding oneself while creating an aesthetic balance in life. Because of the current difficulties in Thailand, we depended on online sessions which led to interesting challenges and solutions starting from exploring interests in musical styles, looking at music from different angles, composing new music, along with creating media such as videos, poems, and paintings to present original music on the website.
This project brings forth a fascinating perspective on how the distance of virtual space creates challenges in music making. It is a signal for us to adapt and overcome by making changes in the teaching and learning experience. We strongly believe that developing music is not only about technical skills, but also the many views and angles music provides, because music creates a society of sharing. It gives us the ability to perceive beauty as it has the power to indefinitely inspire people.
