Ireland-Vietnam art performances in Hanoi, HCM City
(VOV) - The Embassy of Ireland in Vietnam in co-ordination with Vietnam Youth Theatre will hold traditional song and dance performances in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City on January 14 and 17, respectively.
Among Ireland’s artists are Mick Moloney, Michelle Mulcahy, and Dylan Foley who use many musical instruments such as violon, flute, Uilleann bag pipes, and mandolin.
Audiences will also have the chance to see world leading artist Niall O’Leary in the step-dance.
Participating in these performances are more than 50 members of the Rhapsody Philharmonic orchestra of the Vietnam National Academy of Music, which was founded in September 2010 and has gained many prizes during domestic and international music competitions.
The event aims to strengthen the friendship relations and mutual understanding between Vietnam and Ireland and introduce Ireland’s traditional music to Vietnamese audiences.
