Event Description
Nutri-San invites you to ‘Flourish: A Musical Odyssey’ – an evening of exceptional music brought to you by Bao Anh Nguyen, Artistic Director of the Saigon Philharmonic Orchestra.
Held in the magnificent Saigon Opera House, Ho Chi Minh City, but also available online, this concert is in aid of two Vietnam-based charities – Saigon Children’s Charity and Newborns Vietnam. It is also an opportunity to celebrate 50 years of diplomatic relations between the U.K. and Vietnam.
Nutri-San is honored to welcome the renowned British composer and pianist, Simon Proctor, to Vietnam for this unique event. Together with the Saigon Philharmonic Orchestra, Simon himself will be performing his ‘Queen Concerto’ – including the iconic ‘We Will Rock You’ and ‘Bohemian Rhapsody,’ while acclaimed Vietnamese pianist Luu Duc Anh will perform Proctor’s ‘Bond Concerto’ – bringing the themes associated with the famous 007 agent to Vietnam in what is truly a celebration of East-West talent, and a fitting tribute for the 50-year anniversary!
As if this were not enough, the evening will start with The Carmen Fantasy Op.25 (Pablo de Sarasate) performed by violin virtuoso Ji Eun Yook, before the jazz group Jumpforjazz, led by saxophonist Nguyen Bao Long and featuring the multi-talented celebrity chef Bobby Chinn on vocals, will delight us all with ‘The Maker’ (Daniel Lanois) and ‘You Can’t Hurry Love’ (Holland-Dozier-Holland).
Nutri-San is a seaweed technology company based in Vietnam and the UK. The title of the concert highlights the idea of ‘flourish’ and relates to the company’s mission to enable people, animals, and our planet to flourish now and in the future. What better way for us all to flourish than through an evening of music!
We hope you will join us on this ‘odyssey’ and embark on a journey through the musical landscape that makes up this truly magnificent program.
A huge thank you in advance for your support!
