From L’Espace and French Embassy:

The top music event of French Year in Vietnam is coming to Hanoi! A special concert with a lot of duet and solo performances by famous duos and singers namely Thanh Lam, Le Cat Trong Ly, La Grande Sophie, Leila Bounous, Quang & Minh, Viet Vo Da House and electronic rock band Poni Hoax.

The music festival will present a mixture of different rhythms from electronic, pop, rock to folk music in 4 hours, which will help you discover the musical talents from Vietnam and France.

The program honors great female singers and they will perform in 4 languages (Vietnamese, French, Arabic and English). This is an opportunity for artists from two countries to meet on one same stage. They will appear together in an exciting, jolly and open festival.

The festival will present two very famous names La Grande Sophie and Thanh Lam. Sophie is known as a talented and charming singer with exquisite pop-rock style. She has won the best album award for her work “La Place du fantome” in Victoires de la Musique 2013 (equivalent to Grammy of the US). Whereas Thanh Lam, one of the best-known Vietnamese divas with her passionate vocal, will perform various genres of music from pop, rock to jazz, soul.

In addition, the audience will have the chance to enjoy the performance of other famous singers/groups such as:

Le Cat Trong Ly: Singer, songwriter, a poetic soul who can touch the audience’s heart. She will perform in a completely new style.

The duo Quang and Minh from Vietnam with Hamon and Martin from France – an interesting combination of four virtuoso folk musicians with a delicate contemporary folk style.

Viet Vo Da House (HCMC) with a blended style combining electro music, electric guitar with Vietnamese traditional instruments.

Leila Bounous. A new contributor to French music scene, this Algerian French female singer will bring to the audience some special electro – rock performances with her strong oriental vocals.

And finally, the music festival will end with the performance of Poni Hoax, a vibrant rock band. Their music somehow resembles David Bowie’s fascinating tunes.

All these great performances will undoubtedly bring unforgettable memory to the Vietnamese audience.
