Piano Highlights

About the event:

This concert by Nat Studio aims to continue fund raising to help NAT association support a local school in Krabi to renovate their music room and buy 10 new computers with the total aim of 225,000 THB. In the previous concert we've already reached 137,496.11 THB.

The association has been a great help for Thai children in Krabi, supporting a local primary school, Natacha School (โรงเรียนบ้านควนเกาะจันทร์), for 4 to 12 years old. The association’s main role is to support the teachers’ salaries together with Thai government as well as building facilities such as the library, computer room, music room, and equipments inside. Since the association stepped in, the school has increased the number of students from only 20 to 120 students in 2023. Not only that the association supported the school; but it also has a scholarship project helping these students to continue their study even after their graduation from Natacha School by finding a sponsor for each one of them.

As music connects us all, we hope that this concert will not only bring joy to those in Bangkok, but also to other children in Krabi, who will benefit greatly from our support.
