Brazilian pianist Cristian Budu will be performing, together with the Sun Symphony Orchestra under the baton of French conductor Olivier Ochanine.

Vietnam will serve as the starting point of the first Asian tour of Cristian Budu. The concert will also feature famous pieces of works written by composers Camargo Guarnieri and Heitor Villa-Lobos, as well as by French composer Darius Milhaud.

Cristian Budu was the grand winner of the Clara Haskil international competition in Switzerland. He was also honoured with prizes from a public vote and from young critics.

The Brazilian pianist debuted in the internationally-renowned magazine Gramophone, which specialises in classical music.

His latest solo CD was awarded the “Editor’s Choice” prize in England and the “5-Diapasons” prize in France, whilst it was also included in the latest update of two of the most prestigious lists by Gramophone: “Top 10 Recent Beethoven Recordings” and “Top 10 Chopin Recordings”.
