MY STORY

My name is Tanasak Angsugomutkul ,normally people in Yong Siew Toh conservatory of Music called me Tanasak ,but my friends usually called me BAS. In Thailand every person must have a nickname, so when I am in Thailand everyone called me BAS. I have been playing flute since I was 15 years old, at that time I had no background about music at all.

Why did I choose flute? Actually, when I was a secondary school student, I had no intention to play any kind of instrument, I just want to join the school band. So, I went into the club and asked them "I want to join the band, what should I do?" then my senior said "well, you have to choose an instrument first!' then my senior showed me around the place and introduced every kind of the instruments in the band. At the end he asked "What instrument do you want to play?" , I was shocked because I did not pay any attention to what he said, so I have to choose my next words carefully and asked "What instrument are you holding in your hand?". He replied " Flute?"and I said " OK, I want to play flute". He smiled and introduced me to everyone that he got me to played flute with him.

That is why my journey began. It sounds stupid to someone but it is my true story. I come so far because of that day. And I am very proud of it!
