A former winner of the Russian Tchaikovsky Prize, violinist Bui Cong Duy, performed with top Vietnamese and the Republic of Korea’s musicians at the Ho Chi Minh City Opera House on December 5 to raise money for storm victims.
The RoK-Vietnam Friendship Classic Concert was jointly organised by the ACEF Korean Cultural Centre in Ho Chi Minh City and the Ho Chi Minh City Ballet Symphony Orchestra and Opera.
In the first half of the show Bui Cong Duy and the Ho Chi Minh City Symphony Orchestra received enthusiastic applause for their performance of Concerto in G Minor “Summer” for violin and String Orchestra.
Next was a Korean Fold Song Medley played by a troupe of Korean saxophonists.
In the second half, Pianist Kim Ji-eun and the orchestra performed Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No 1 B-flat Minor, Op. 23 under the baton of conductor Tran Vuong Thach.
Ok Duk, head of the Centre, said the programme will assist victims of the recent storms for the benefit of friendship between the two countries.
Fifty RoK companies in Vietnam sponsored the charity event with all money going to the Vietnam Fatherland Front. The Korean Cultural Centre in Ho Chi Minh City will soon cooperate with the city’s people’s committee to assist typhoon victims in the Centre.
