Congratulations on obtaining a good oboe/eh position in Bangkok. You will get used to the change in culture, soon. I've found your comments on reedmaking quite useful.

A couple of decades ago, I spent a month at the Dusit Thani Hotel in Bangkok and also some time at the elegant hotel near the water where the famous author stayed. The food was great and the people were also wonderful. A representative of the company I worked for played bass in the king's jazz band but I did not get to play with them. As he played the alto saxophone, I made lists of big band pieces with alto solos for him but I don't know if he ever played them.

It should be good for you as I'm sure you are quite familiar with the pieces and solos you mentioned. The rehearsals sound kind of long, however. Good luck!
