Peranya is a musician and music teacher. Her performances have been cancelled and she’s unable to teach her students in person, but she’s adapting through online jam sessions and spending time at home playing music.

Here she shares with us some traditional Thai music playing the Saw U, or alto fiddle. The saw u is a two-stringed instrument used in traditional Thai music, producing a mellow sound.

Enjoy!
