Young pianist Nguyen Viet Trung.

Nguyen Viet Trung was born in 1996 in Hanoi. He showed his musical talent early. At the age of 7, his family sent him to study piano under the guidance of Professor Filomena Dziedzic at the Im Oskara Kolberga Music School in Warsaw, Poland. Just two years later, at the age of 9, Trung won the Emmy Alberg competition in Lodz, Poland. After that, Nguyen Viet Trung won awards at piano talent competitions held in Poland: Second prize in the competition for young pianists (no first prize), First prize in the Chopin performance competition and the "Golden Note" award for the best young pianist performing Mozart's work in Sochaczew in 2006; Third prize at the International Piano Festival for Young Pianists, in the category of the award for the best young pianist performing 20th century music in Glubczyce (in 2007); Second prize at the Ludwik Stefanski and Halina Czerny Stefanska International Piano Competition in Plock (2008). Second prize at the Antonin - International Competition "Chopin for Young People" also in Poland... Since then, Trung has won many more awards at international piano competitions held in Poland. Invited from many famous places around the world, Nguyen Viet Trung still regularly takes time to participate in charity concerts. In 2022, Nguyen Viet Trung participated in the "Dream Concert" organized by the Vietnam Children's Fund, and the Fund received nearly two billion VND in support for children in especially difficult circumstances.

Invited from many famous places around the world, Nguyen Viet Trung still regularly spends time participating in charity fundraising music nights.

Graduated with a master's degree from the Academy of Music in Bydgoszcz, Poland at the age of 25, Nguyen Viet Trung is currently pursuing a doctorate under the guidance of Professor Kevin Kenner at the Frost School of Music, USA. He has also studied with many famous professors such as: Dang Thai Son, Tatiana Shebanova, Katarzyna Popowa - ZydronDmitri Alexeev, Boris Berman, William Grant Naboré... Nguyen Viet Trung's experience performing on professional stages is admired in many places around the world such as: Germany, France, Ukraine, Russia, Hungary, the United States, Thailand, Korea, Japan... At the EXPO 2020 world exhibition, Viet Trung performed a series of solos at the Polish theater. During his performing career, Nguyen Viet Trung has performed with famous orchestras under the direction of famous conductors such as Wojciech Czepiel, Le Phi Phi, Honna Tetsuji, Łukasz Borowicz, Marek Pijarowski, Wojciech Rodek, Jacek Rogala. He has collaborated with professional music groups such as the Ulysses Quartet, the Arod Quartet, the Arso Quartet... Performing this time in Hanoi , Nguyen Viet Trung will solo the Rhapsody on the theme of Paganini, Op. 43 for piano and orchestra, by Sergei Rachmaninoff, a Russian musical genius. This is one of Rachmaninoff's last works, because after that he focused almost entirely on performing and only composed two more works: Symphony No. 3, Op. 44 and Symphony Dances, Op. 45... Under the direction of French music director Olivier Ochanine, the concert will take place at the Ho Guom Theater in Hanoi. In his message, conductor O.Ochanine said: “To celebrate the 150th anniversary of Rachmaninoff’s birth, the concert introduces a famous composer with extremely lyrical music, just like the Vietnamese songs that have accompanied life here. In fact, some of Rachmaninoff’s melodies have been used as the main melodies in famous songs around the world such as “Never Gonna Fall in Love Again”, “Full Moon and Empty Arms”, “Tat Tat By Chinh Toi” and many more!”. In recent years in Vietnam, in addition to artistic and musical activities, classical symphony has always received attention from fans. The great names of the world's classical music are performed by the Vietnam Symphony Orchestra, attracting not only foreigners living in Vietnam but also Vietnamese audiences who love this type of classical music. Among them, Rachmaninoff is perhaps the most anticipated genius because his works have a strong appeal with a level of difficulty, challenging the talents of great players.
