SUMMARY:Music – The Hope Choir: concert for Vietnam's War Invalids and Martyrs
DESCRIPTION:This is the  re-scheduled Hope Choir concert\, which could not take place on the original date of 27 July.  \nEvery year on\, or as close as possible to\, Martyrs and Wounded Soldiers Day (also known as Vietnamese War Invalids and Martyrs’ Day -27 July)\, the Hope Choir holds a recital. This year its at 50 Dao Duy Tu.  Everyone is welcome to come along.  FVH has been an important supporter ever since Triem and Thanh founded this wonderful choir. \nTHE HOPE CHOIR. \nIf you have not heard The Hope Choir sing before you will undoubtedly be impressed.  If you already know them then they need no introduction.  They are a group of blind and severely visually impaired singers and folk musicians. They are amazing– not because of vision impairment but because they are superb singers.  The choir was formed about 20 years ago by pianist Tôn Thất Triêm and his opera singer wife Xuân Thành. What they have achieved with minimal funds and little resource is incredible. \nTriêm teaches the choir the meaning of each word\, they transcribe the lyrics into braille\, and sing in the language of that song. \nSo\, lets join the choir and celebrate this Sunday 18 August. The concert starts at 3pm and usually lasts about 1 hr 30 mins. \nThey will perform a selection of songs and medleys and folk music.   The venue is one of the best in Hanoi for acoustics. \nThere is no entry cost but the choir highly appreciate\, and needs\, donations no matter how big or how small. Every little bit is a great help to them as they rely soley on the community’s help. \nVenue  3rd floor\, 50 Dao Duy Tu\, Cultural Exchange Centre\, Hanoi Old Quarter. https://goo.gl/maps/a5uadZ1nng8yYVGo9 \nTake the stairs (right and left in the foyer) or the lift diagonally to the right hand side of the foyer to the 3rd floor. \nNo RSVP needed but for questions or more info on the venue\, please contact  stella@fvheritage.org.  \nThank you so much on behalf of Triem and the choir. \n  \nPlease follow and like us:Share this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Google+ (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading...\n\n	Related\n
