In this concert, in addition to the orchestra, there were also conductor Harald Krumpock and cellist Péter Somodari.

Vienna Concert 2 Hours of Joy

According to the script, the Vienna Concert includes Symphony No. 73 in D major The Hunt Hob. I:73 and Concerto for cello and orchestra in C major Hob. VIIb:1 by F. J. Haydn. In addition, there is Symphony No. 5 in B-flat major D 485 by F. Schubert; Sounds of Spring (Frühlingsstimmen Waltz op. 410) composed by J. Strauss.

In which Symphony No. 73 is the work that FJ Haydn composed after meeting Mozart. This is a new and adventurous work at the time of its creation (1781). In this work, the ending makes a strong impression on the audience like a whirlwind of several minutes long, reminiscent of hunting trips, resonated by majestic and intense sounds. With Sounds of Spring by J. Strauss, the artists lead the audience into the atmosphere of the Viennese countryside, one of the most beautiful pieces of music in the history of world classical music. The concert lasted about 2 hours. The audience discovered Vienna's classical music heritage through typical authors: FJ Haydn, F. Schubert, J. Strauss and Strauss Sohn. The applause was endless. In response to the affection of Vietnamese audiences, international artists "treated" two more pieces outside the program, which were Tritsch tratsch and Banditen Galop by Strauss Sohn.
