The HUCKY Eichelmann - ANTHONY Garcia Thailand Tour Standing ovations, cheering crowds and packed venues
Thousands of excited fans cheered and celebrated the concerts of this amazing world-class guitar duo in Nakhorn Rachasima, Mahasarakham, Khon Kaen, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Pai-Mae Hong Son, Bangkok, Phatthalung and Phuket. The tour, which ran from 15 August to 03 September and featured nine concerts and six workshops, was organized by AMI Events in co- operation with the Australian Embassy in Bangkok, in celebration of His Majesty the King’s 84th birthday. During the tour the prestigious Hucky Eichelmann-Mahsarakham University Award was given to Watcharanont Saengmuenna.
The two highly-acclaimed and classically-trained guitarists enthralled audiences with their mind boggling ability to play many musical styles and genres ranging from classics, folk, world, Latin, Irish, Spanish, Chinese, Thai, Australian, contemporary to the beautiful melodies of His Majesty the King.
The tour aimed to give international and local communities of Thailand an opportunity to see a new and broad way of approaching music, and to encourage a better understanding of the fundamental aspects of music and life. It offered a wonderful opportunity for audiences to hear these astounding musicians up close and personal.
"Playing for crowds of up to two thousand and seeing some concerts being teleconferenced into additional venues due to high demand felt great but what touched me the most on this tour was a concert in the South were, reportedly for the first time, Muslim and Buddhist students attended and shared an event together and in full harmony, too." says Hucky Eichelmann.
More than 300 students participated in the workshops, which included topics such as guitar performance and composition techniques and practices. During the workshops students enjoyed the opportunity of practicing and demonstrating their performance skills.
Plans are already underway for the next Hucky Eichelmann Thailand tour in 2012. Keep on visiting www.amithailand.com and/or www.huckyeichelmann.com for more news about the next mega-guitar event from AMI and Hucky. Watch photos of the tour
