Abstract

Cultural preservation is one of the significant policies that all countries in Southeast Asia are obligated to seek strategies for maintaining it in this modern era. The research Blending ASEAN Cultures in Contemporary Composition aims to demonstrate methodologies for conserving Southeast Asian cultural identities through the contemporary composition of Narongrit Dhamabutra. The research outcome arrays techniques in transforming several ASEAN cultural aspects including religions, traditional musical materials and instruments, mythology and beliefs into a contemporary composition of western orchestra and mixed ensemble.
