Art performance
The Sun Symphony Orchestra will present a unique concert entitled “Devil’s Last Dance” on October 31, offering a wide variety of music whose themes fit the Halloween season.
After a cool brass quintet version of the mysterious “Night on Bald Mountain by Mussorgsky”, the concert features a very important musical and theatrical work born out of the difficulties Igor Stravinsky faced after World War I. “L’Histoire du Soldat” (The Soldier’s Tale) stars two actors, a dancer, and seven musicians in a story about a soldier’s greed and misfortune when the devil tricks him into thinking he can get rich quickly. It’s a story about humility that combines different art forms in a very special way for the audience’s enjoyment.
The concert will also incorporate some chilling music from the classic Hitchcock film Psycho, as well as other Halloween classics such as The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, made famous by the film Fantasia.
Audience members are encouraged to dress up as witches, pumpkins, or anything else they feel like. The show will take place at the Vietnam Academy of Music, 77 Hao Nam Street, Hanoi.
