Together with the HCMC Ballet Symphony Orchestra and Opera (HSBO), Stulen will take audiences on an exquisite adventure through masterpieces from legendary composers such as Brahms, Schubert and Bizet.

Stulen conducted his first public orchestra at 19, and went on to direct the Holland Symphonia and Deutsche Kammerorchester Frankfurt.

He will be in Vietnam to teach a week-long series of conductor master classes to the winners of the talent competition ‘So You Want to be a Conductor’, which was open to music master students nationwide. Stulen will also be presenting a workshop for business professionals on November 23, centered on the similarities between conducting an orchestra and business leadership, using music as a metaphor.
