| Abstract | This paper investigates the overall formal and internal design of luk lor-luk khat, a type of composition using imitative and contradictory musical techniques. The author collected documents from both Thai and Western sources, including the three main books on Thai classical music: Thai Classical Music Book 1, Book 2, and Book 3 by Montri Tram?d and others. They contain a large Thai classical repertoire, especially phleng sam chan (the composition of the third variation) with luk lor-luk khat style, which refers to a composition using imitative and contradictory musical techniques. The author selected Khamen Rajaburi, Third Variation, Section 1, for analysis because it contains many luk lor-luk khat techniques.The results showed that Khamen Rajaburi was composed according to an overall design similar to the rondo form in Western classical music, whereas its internal form, especially the luk lor-luk khat session, is akin to fugue. Fugue is an imitative technique using two voices represented by two groups of instruments, of higher and lower pitch, imitating a longer and a shorter passage. Finally, the two groups of instruments catch up with each other, as the full paper will show.Keywords: formal analysis, luk lor-luk khat, Thai classical piece, formal design |
