KORAT SONG

The Korat Song

The Korat Song is a local song. It is only vocal with no instruments used. It is an extemporaneous format song with quick interchanges between men and women where they say that Thao Suranaree likes the Korat Song a great deal, that if anyone supplicants Thao Suranaree for a blessing, they will be able to receive one with the Korat Song. She is thus seen as one who injects breath into the Korat Song so that it lives on.
