From Japan Foundation Center for Cultural Exchange in Vietnam:
The Japan Foundation Center for Cultural Exchange in Vietnam proudly presents “Hanoi Collective Orchestra”, which is audience participatory, improvisational orchestra performance on the 17th of July in Hanoi.
Hanoi Collective Orchestra, held for the second time in Hanoi, is one of the art projects in which participants perform “music instruments” as a member of Orchestra. Participants create “music instruments” using tools, materials that we use in our everyday life. The first performance was held in September last year in Hanoi.
Participants will create new instruments and perform as part of a large, impromptu orchestra. With this impromptu orchestra and the multitude of different ensembles created by the participants and varied sounds drawn from Hanoi’s streets, a new kind of “music without musicians” will be born in Hanoi.
At the same time, 2 weeks of workshop will be held with Otomo Yoshihide, a musician, Suzuki Akio, a sound artist and facilitators from Vietnamese, Thai and Japanese. Participants for workshop will search the sound from the street, life in Hanoi and create music instruments.
