Concert to celebrate French National Day

To celebrate the National Day of the French Republic (July 14), the Institute for Cultural Exchange with France (IDECAF) organized a special concert "LUMIÈRE" performed by the band la Muse. The program is a cultural exchange activity between Vietnam and France.

The name of the music night "LUMIÈRE" means "Light" in French, born as a harmony of two spaces, a whisper of music sent into the heart of the night.

The name was inspired by the show's theme piece Claire de Lune (Moonlight - Claude Debussy).

The 12 works throughout the program are classical French music, representing two brilliant periods of French music: Romanticism (19th century) - where the melody is like poetry, like a dream, resonating between lyrical and delicate harmonies; and Impressionism (20th century) with works where the chords are no longer bound by rules, the sound nuances are as light as breath, resounding like paintings with vague, slow and extremely attractive melodies.

"LUMIÈRE" is not just a light from the stage. It is the light of nostalgia, discovery and of the whispered emotions expressed through music, spreading into the hearts of the listeners, quietly but deeply like moonlight on a calm river.

The music night takes place at IDECAF Theater (No. 28, Le Thanh Ton Street, Saigon Ward, HCMC) at 7:30 p.m. on July 12.
