A series of activities themed “Culture in You - Cultural fulcrum, Artistic bridge" has been underway in several schools across Hanoi with musical exchanges involving leading artists from Australia such as Philip Quast, Ann-Maree McDonald, and Nicholas Gentile.
The Việt Nam-Australia Cultural Exchange Organisation (VACEO) presented outstanding artistic performances in Sydney, showing a perfect fusion of traditional and modern.
Individuals and collectives donated VND2.850 billion through an art programme jointly organised by the Voice of Vietnam (VOV) and Hanoi Moi (New Hanoi) newspaper on September 17 in support of people hit by typhoon Yagi.
The event, Đêm Huyền Thoại (Legendary Night), offers a series of performance excerpts from famous plays of cải lương (reformed opera), a 100-year-old gerne of the South’s traditional theatre.
An art programme will be held at the Hanoi Opera House in August together with social welfare activities in the northern province of Dien Bien in celebration of the Vu Lan festival – a Buddhist tradition and a cultural activity aimed at honouring and showing gratitude to parents and ancestors.
