Concert to warm up Hanoi

Local classical music enthusiasts will meet famed American conductor Dorian Wilson again in a concert called "Lua thang Tu" (The April flame), set for Apr 25 and 26 in Hanoi.

The concert, to be held at 8 pm at the Hanoi Opera House on Apr 25 and 26, will feature the performances of G.Bizet’s Symphony, E.Grieg’s Peer Gunt Suite No.1 and D.Ellington’s Suite by local musicians under conductor Wilson’s baton.

Wilson has garnered scores of international accolades and conducted over 120 orchestras in Europe and Asia.

In Vietnam, he conducted a program called “Beethoven’s Symphony No. 8” in late 2011 and the “Gorgeous Night” concert late last year in Hanoi.
