From Goethe Institut:

For the first time in Vietnam a musical theatre performance by German Composer, drummer and installation artist Manos Tsangaris will take place in the Goethe-Institut Hanoi.

In collaboration with the Hanoi New Music Ensemble and DomDom we proudly present the music theatre piece “Love & Diversity” by Manos Tsangaris, composer, drummer and installation artist on June 9 at 8 pm.

With “Love & Diversity” Manos Tsangaris combines people, space and sound. This music theatre performance translates the concept of speed dating into music: not only the diversity of getting acquainted but also the individual attention one gives to each other.

“Music theatre became a new strong genre by itself beyond opera and Broadway musicals. It creates an essential space for research in media, performance, intervention, installation and concept based on music and compositional thinking.” — Manos Tsangaris
