Nhung Nguoi Khon Kho, also known as Les Misérables in French, is regarded as one of the most recognized pieces of literature from the 19th century. In light of the audience’s overwhelming appreciate for this literary novel following its initial performance during 2020, Vietnam National Opera and Ballet (VNOB) is pleased to bring back the musical Les Miserables with the intention of fostering the solidarity, love, and optimism for the future that perpetually exist in every human being.
VNOB version of Les Miserables portrays an epic tale of shattered dreams, unrequited romance, passion, sacrifice, along with forgiveness.

Paradiso dell’opera by VNOB

La Traviata is a story about a young man from a powerful family from Provence (Alfredo Germont) who falls in love with a rich prostitute (Violetta Valéry). The father (Giorgio Germont) interfered in this love affair to protect the family’s reputation leading to a misunderstanding, causing all the characters involved to make mistakes, and in the end Violetta died in Alfredo arms.

A successful Opera master piece comes from a blend of quality vocals, acting and music. Audiences will see and feel this on the nights of April 15 and 16, through the cooperation between Vietnam National Opera and Ballet (VNOB) and Saigon Philharmonic Orchestra (SPO). In the academic art world in Vietnam, VNOB is considered the leading bird in opera, ballet and orchestra. SPO also has set up a number of successful concerts. Both have created some shows which attracted audiences nationwide and become a bridge, bringing Vietnamese closer and closer to the art forms that are labeled “academic, academic, difficult feeling”.

Opera masterpiece Cavalleria Rusticana, under the auspices of the Italian Embassy to Vietnam, the creative and production team of SPO – VNOB is very excited to bring together a product that reproduces one of the works as timeless opera, full of symbolism of a new era in Opera history. Together with some soloists from Hong Kong, Italy, there are powerful and emotional vocals from VNOB’s chorus. This promises to be an impressive combination and will affirm Vietnam’s talent and potential on the path of Opera development in the country in particular and in Asia in general.

The transmission of emotions through melodies and musical notes will be performed by musicians from Hong Kong and Thailand, being invited by SPO. Through the organization of classical and chamber music events, we are confident that we will create an Italian music space and reproduce the emotions and atmosphere of 19th century Sicily naturally and live. The most dynamic under the guidance of Fan Ting, a conductor with 40 years of experience working and conducting many international orchestras.
