| Abstract | This study aimed to examine the role of Puan folk songs in Khok Pip Sub-district, Si Mahosot District, Prachin Buri Province. In order to gather and analyze the data, the researcher used the qualitative method with an ethnomusicology approach. Khok Pip Sub-district has a culture of folk music that expresses Tai Puan or Lao Phuan culture. There is a unique folk singing style called "Lam Puan" or "Kub Puan" that originated from Thai Puan folk songs. It is a style of singing that could be performed solo or as a group. For group performances, it could be sung in the form of teasing interaction among friends or flirting interaction among male and female. The style of song is usually variations on the same theme either with the "Kaen" performing or without any musical instruments. Lam Puan folk songs are related to Thai traditional rituals such as the Kathin Ceremony which is held annually. A Lam Puan performance is the main activity at the ceremony. Sometimes, the head of the band and some of the audience alternately sing Lam Puan folk songs in order to interact and tease each other. The beginning part of Lam Puan performance is called Wai Khru. It is the part for paying homage and showing respect to the teachers. Next is the part called "Lam Ruang" which is the story-telling singing style, followed by the part called "Lam Don", the Lam Puan singing with extemporaneous rhyme mixing between the local languages of Thai Puan, Central Thai and North-Eastern Thai. At the end of each phrase of Lam Puan, the audience is supposed to respond by saying "Hew" as part of the entertainment. Lam Puan is an expression of the identity of the Thai Puan in their traditions, vocabulary, language and melodies. To help create a sense of belonging, Lam Puan is also used as a tool to tell the story of a particular group. |
