Wisuwat Pruksavanich
Dr. Wisuwat Pruksavanich is the first Thai saxophonist in contemporary classical music to become a Yamaha Artist. He has made his name on the world stages as a soloist in Narong Prangcharoen’s world premiere of The Dawn of Darkness at Ki Zu Na Concert 2012, Sumida Triphony Hall, Tokyo, Japan. His Hard Fairy album was nominated for Best Instrumental Album and Wisuwat himself was nominated for Best New Artist at the 11th Komchadluek Awards.
While watching YouTube, French composer Christian Lauba came across a video of Wisuwat’s performance of Hard too Hard, one of Christian’s toughest compositions. He then invited Wisuwat to join his master class in Lisbon, Portugal.
In 2019, Wisuwat was invited to be the saxophone instructor at The 2nd Poznan SaxEvent in Poznan, Poland, and XI Mallorca Saxophone Festival at Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
Today, Dr. Wisuwat is a saxophone instructor at Mahidol University’s College of Music.
