Images and Video from Toyota Concert 2016 in Hanoi & HCMC
The 19th Toyota Concert took place earlier this month in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, enlightening classical music lovers with wonderful moments of being immersed in the works of three Russian composers from the Romantic era – Glinka, Rachmaninov, and Tchaikovsky.
The famous compositions were presented in four concert nights in the performance of the Vietnam National Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of the Japanese talented conductor Honna Tetsuji, and especially the first time participation of solo pianist Vu Ngoc Linh – who achieved many big awards at music contests in the US.
Below are the videos and photos that were recorded and taken during the concert nights in Hanoi and HCMC by Hanoi Grapevine:
