Pack your bags with quality Italian products and kick back to some smooth jazz tunes

The Fashion Hall, Level 1, at Siam Paragon is going full-Italian today and throughout the weekend. From April 20-22, the event space is hosting an all-out food, beverage and music event featuring all things Italian to commemorate 150-years of diplomatic relations between Thailand and Italy.

The title is a bit of a mouthful, “Siam Paragon Italian Grand Weekend: Vivere all’Italiana – Smooth Lifestyle, Urban Glamour, Live Music," but the event promises to highlight the very best Italy has to offer. Organizers have flown in a hand-picked Italian barista to craft artistic latte art—Italian style—in addition to a wealth of the country’s best exports like Angesi pasta, Illy coffee among other drinks and snacks offered at wallet-friendly prices. 

 

Slivovitz

 

The big ticket here, though, is the arrival of famous Italian jazz group Slivovitz. Renowned across Europe for their swingy and upbeat tunes, the 15-year veterans of the jazz game will take the stage opening night to perform some of the late King Bhumibol’s classic composions, such as “Love at Sundown” and “H.M. Blues” in addition to international hits like Frank Sinatra's “Fly me to the Moon”.  Thai vocalist Vitchayanee “Gam” Pearkin will join the show to add a dash of local flare and help celebrate the long-standing ties between the two countries. 

“For a long time, Italy and Thailand have enjoyed long and cordial relations in terms of diplomacy, trade and cultural exchange,” said H.E. Francesco Saverio Nisio, Italian Ambassador to Thailand. “Music is an excellent medium to strengthen friendship and relations, regardless of genres.”

You can catch Slivovitz’s performance live at 4pm and 5:30pm on April 21-22.

Correction: a previous version of this article incorrectly credited "Fly me to the Moon" as a composition by the late King Bhumibol, not Frank Sinatra.
