From the organizer:
Following the success of last year’s inaugural event, Vietnam Airlines Classic – Hanoi Concert 2018 marks the return of the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Elim Chan.
Taking place at the Ly Thai To Statue and Garden in Hanoi’s famous Hoan Kiem District, the concert will showcase the beauty of Vietnam; its people; and its thousand-year old capital Hanoi – a city of peace, and a world-class destination for international cultural events. The event will also be brought to an even larger audience via big screens placed in locations including Hoan Kiem Lake, Dinh Tien Hoang Street and Tonkin Free School Square.
This annual event will bring world-class cultural and artistic works to local audiences in Hanoi, as well as serving as a cultural bridge connecting Vietnam, and its capital Hanoi, to the world – not only in terms of tourism, but also as a country, and city, of rich cultural traditions and identity.
