Hanoi (VNS/VNA)- After amazing Hanoi’s audience with an outdoor concert last year, theworld-famous London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) is back in the capital city for amusical extravaganza on October 5 night.

The 95-member orchestra, under the baton of one of the world’s finestconductors, Elim Chan, will present a performance filled with musicalvirtuosity and enthusiasm during the Vietnam Airlines Classic – Hanoi Concert2018.

Chan was supposed to conduct last year’s event, but the conductor had to pullout due to health reasons.

Now she gets a second chance to lead the Orchestra in the capital city.  

Born in Hong Kong in 1986, Chen studied cello and piano as a child. In December2014, Chan became the first female conductor to win the annual Donatella FlickLSO Competition, before leading the London Symphony Orchestra.

In April 2016, the Swedish Opera Norrlands Operan announced Chan as itsconductor for the next three years, starting in 2017.

The concert will be opened with the Vietnamese national anthem Tien QuanCa (The Marching Song) by Van Cao, and overture The Baber ofSeville by Gioachino Rossini.

The repertoire will continue with work by other great composers such as JosephHaydn, Antonin Drovak, Pablo de Sarasate, Jean Sibelius, Felix Mendelssohn, andP. I. Tchaikiovsky.

Attending a press conference in Hanoi on October 4, the Strategy Director ofthe 114-year-old orchestra Susan Deborah Mallet said some members of the LSOwill offer master classes at the Vietnam National Academy of Music.

“Last year we were very happy to see many students coming to our rehearsal atthe academy. So when we come back this time, we wish to offer more activitieswith them – that is the master classes for them,” she said.

The concert was due to take place on Saturday but the schedule was changedbecause of the national mourning of former Party General Secretary Do Muoi.

General director of the concert, Vietnamese composer and music producer QuocTrung said his team have prepared backup plan, that’s why the change ofperformance date doesn’t affect them much as well as the quality of theconcert.

By late afternoon yesterday, Trung said his team has completed “90 per cent ofwork load, including stage setup, lighting, and tonnes of other work.”

🃏 Like last year, the LSO concert in Hanoi, will take place at Ly Thai To Squareby Hoan Kiem Lake from 8pm. The concert will be brought to an even largeraudience via two big screens placed on Dinh Tien Hoang walking street.-VNS/VNA
