“For
sheer podium charisma, though, I was more impressed earlier in
the week with the work of Bundit Ungrangsee from Thailand….If
a conductor’s ultimate unteachable gift is the ability to galvanize
an orchestra through body language, eye contact, and an arresting
physical presence, this wired-up musician definitely has a major
future.”

Conductor Thrills Park City Audience

Maazel, con pero talento ABC.es
“Ungrangsee…was truly in his element here, leading a spellbinding
performance [of Sibelius Symphony No. 1]. His careful phrasing
and meticulous cuing displayed his command of this music, and
his musicians played their hearts out for him.”
- The Post and Courier, April 4 2004
“Ungrangsee energized the symphony as well as the audience, and
they responded enthusiastically….He was clearly popular, not just
with the audience, but also with the symphony members.”
- Naples Daily News, October 27 2003
“Ungrangsee’s rhythmic consistency and sure sense of line made
for masterly construction of the work’s stunning climaxes…evincing
youthful exuberance but a veteran’s authority.”
- American Record Guide, January/February 2003
“Ungrangsee and his musicians gave it their unstinting all, delivering
a truly thrilling performance that left the audience breathless.
The finale, taken at breakneck tempo, glittered and glowed lie
a finely cut diamond, with sharply chiseled sonic contours, uncanny
precision and utterly clear contrapuntal textures.”
- The Post and Courier, January 13 2002
“’You are seeing magic,’ Mr. Maazel told the cheering crowd in
the well-filled [Carnegie Hall]. ‘This is where classical music
is going to go in the next decades.’” (Lorin Maazel, Music Director
of the New York Philharmonic on the announcement of the winners
of the Maazel-Vilar Conductors’ Competition held at Carnegie Hall)
- The New York Times, September 30 2002
“The sense of rubato and phrasing continually are some of the
impressive attributes Ungrangsee brings to center stage.”
- Salt Lake Tribune, August 27 1999
“For sheer podium charisma, though, I was more impressed earlier
in the week with the work of Bundit Ungrangsee from Thailand….If
