The 20th Hennessy Concert will be held at the Hanoi Opera House on 10 Apr with the opera “La Bohème” by Puccini, according to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

You are invited to Hennessy Concert 2016 with Artist’s Repertory Theatre Australia including 27 artists and technicians, choreographed by Matthew Barclay, director of the Theatre.

The event will be streamed live via a big screen, located at the August Revolution Square to serve a large number of classical music lovers.

“La Bohème” is a famous 4-act opera composed by Italian composer Giacomo Puccini during the period 1893-1896 and was premier performed in Turin in 1896. A year later, the opera continues to be performed in the UK, US, etc…

Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica wrote the lyrics for this opera based on the novel “Scènes de la vie de bohème” by Henri Murger.

This new version of “La Bohème” will introduce a new approach to classical opera. The background screen will show graphic and famous works of French art in 20th century. The backdrop opposed to the character’s costume was inspired by classical style in 90s to the urban and hip hop style now.

The Hennessy Concert is organized by the The Department of Performing Arts under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in collaboration with Hennessy held annually in Vietnam.

By invitation only.
