02. ท่องบานนาค ตอน 2 (thong ban nak, pt. 1)
this week, the soundtrack to a buddhist ordination ceremony! in thailand it is normal for most adult male buddhists to spend a short time in monkhood, a sort of coming of age ritual and a valuable way of accumulating merit for their parents. their stay can last anywhere from a few days or weeks to several months or years, and for some it becomes a lifelong vocation. this cassette contains the chanting typically associated with the event of entering the monastery. side one features lay officiation by yuthong bunthup (an influential luk thung songwriter/producer) while side 2 consists mostly of the chanting of the monks. enjoy!
