At 8:00 PM on April 19, 2025, at the Grand Concert Hall – Vietnam National Academy of Music, classical music enthusiasts will be immersed in the deeply emotional artistic space of “Tchaikovsky Night – a concert honoring the timeless masterpieces of the Russian musical genius.
This event is jointly organized by the Vietnam National Academy of Music and the Hanoi Symphony Orchestra, with the companionship of ROX Group.
The Emotional Soundscape of Tchaikovsky
The concert features works by P.I. Tchaikovsky (1840-1893), a composer representative of the Russian Romantic school. These include the Nutcracker Overture, Op. 71 – the introductory music of the ballet of the same name; the Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35 – the only violin concerto composed by Tchaikovsky in 1878; and Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64 – where Tchaikovsky expressed complex and extreme contrasts of emotion, delving into every corner of the human soul.
All three pieces to be performed highlight Tchaikovsky's signature style, showcasing his exceptional orchestration and harmonic techniques, as well as the profound spiritual depth of his musical art.
The event features the participation of Sara Dragan – a talented violinist from Poland, hailed as a “brilliant gem of the new generation of artists. This gifted violinist is currently performing on the precious antique violin Nicola Amati (1666) from Italy, entrusted to her by Florian Leonhard Fine Violins (London & New York) as her companion on stage. With her masterful technique and deep emotional expression, Sara Dragan is expected to bring unforgettable moments to music lovers.
