Concert «Musique de Salon 22 — Âm nhạc và Điện ảnh II» (Music and Cinema II)

   Some melodies walk out of the cinema with you and never leave. A week after the Hanoi night, «Âm nhạc và Điện ảnh II» (Music and Cinema II) travels south: a large orchestra plays film music in the Hoà Bình theatre hall, and everyone's own cinema memories light up with each piece.

   In brief:

• — five voices — Trọng Bắc, Uyên Linh, Thùy Chi, Nguyên Hà and Phan Mạnh Quỳnh;
• — staged by composer and producer Đức Trí;
• — the Musique de Salon Orchestra — around 50 musicians on stage, according to the organisers;
• — the programme runs for 165 minutes.

   Musique de Salon is a numbered concert series by Gia Định Audio: this is edition 22, and the second devoted to cinema music. The series is made by people from the audio industry, and it shows — a live orchestra, meticulous sound, and lighting built for each number. The organisers say the hall gathers over a thousand listeners a night.

   The programme is for those who love Vietnamese cinema and the songs attached to it — and for anyone who enjoys hearing orchestral arrangements of tunes they know by heart.

   Seats come in eight categories — from the SVIP zone with its own lounge, light snacks and wine 45 minutes before the show, to zones seated by chosen class; VIP guests get wine in their lounge.
