Riding the lightning | Somtow Sucharitkul | TEDxChiangMai

Ideas take confidence and hard work to pursue, says Somtow Sucharitkul, who discusses the instant when an idea strikes. An individual can choose to grasp that chance and hold on to it or shy away from the challenge and opportunity. However, when one ideates, one is empowered by the possibility of creating. Having authored the longest performing arts work, Somtow shares his experience on endurance in creativity and pursuing big ideas and dreams even in the face of obstacles and doubts. His talk is in English. www.tedxchiangmai.com Somtow Sucharitkul (สมเถา สุจริตกุล) - The first recipient of the Ministry of Culture’s “Distinguished Silpathorn” award for artists who have a major impact on the region’s culture, Somtow Sucharitkul is a revolutionary opera composer, novelist and conductor. Indeed, the International New York Times has called him “the most well-known expatriate Thai in the world.” His current project, the Siam Sinfonietta, is a youth orchestra he founded five years ago that is now among the most acclaimed youth orchestras worldwide—it has received standing ovations in Carnegie Hall, The Konzerthaus in Berlin, Disney Hall, the Musikverein in Vienna and many other venues. Together they’ve been working on “DasJati”, which will be “the ‘largest’ work of music and theatre of all time.” www.operasiam.com/somtow This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
