Excerpt from Ji Sung Lee’s performance of F.Chopin’s Andante Spianato And Grand Polonaise Brillante Op.22:

 

Ji Sung Lee has been playing piano since he was 16. He considers his style to have “a very distinct color”. Ji Sung Lee’s powerful piano solo performance of Nocturne no. 2, op. 9 could make the piece seem very different for those who are used to the soft, gentle version by Chopin.

Violinist Lidia Dobrevska, wife of conductor Le Phi Phi, has always accompanied him in his tour
Soloist Huong Diep performed the opera Il Trovatore: “Stride la vampa” by G. Verdi
Artists To Loan and Thanh Binh performed G. Verdi’s Brindisi ”Libiamo ne’ lieti calici” with the Choir and Orchestra of Vietnam National Opera and Ballet (VNOB).
After the excellent performance of G. Verdi’s Requiem-Lacrimosa by Meritorious Artist Vanh Khuyen, Phuong Thao, Manh Dung and Dinh Chuc, the artists received a thundering ovation from the audience.
