The dance in this video is known as Lakhon, a classical that is less formal than the Khon masked dance but still holds significant cultural importance. It involves elaborate costumes and intricate choreography, often performed by groups of female dancers like this one who move together in harmony. The music and rhythms accompanying the Lakhon are performed by traditional Thai drummers and musicians. The primary instrument is the "Klong Yao," a long drum that produces a deep, resonant sound. Other traditional instruments, such as the "Pi" oboe and "Ching" cymbals, are also used to enhance the musical experience​.
