Themes of Andaman (2023) won an annual composition competition held by King’s College London Symphony Orchestra (KCLSO). The piece depicts the scenery of the Andaman Sea, a northeastern part of the Indian Ocean beside Southeast Asian countries (Thailand, Myanmar, and Indonesia). Its beautiful coastline remains a popular paradise for locals and tourists alike.

Themes of Andaman is presented in ternary form. Apart from its rich Lydian sonority, the piece is contextualised with Southeast-Asian influences, such as pentatonicism and heterophony. The first section describes the picturesque sea. The introduction begins with the image of clashing waves, followed by a wave motif first played by the strings. The music proceeds to primary and secondary themes, showing the tranquil movement and shimmering surface respectively. With a livelier tempo, the middle section then depicts life along the coastline. A fanfare played from a distance draws attention to a civilisation in the Southeast land. After recapitulating the first section, the music finishes with an overwhelming sunset, leaving the Andaman Sea in the darkness.
