VietNamNet Bridge – The “Die Untertanent” Choir from Germany will have a performance at the yard of the Goethe Institute at 56-58 Nguyen Thai Hoc Street, Hanoi, at 8pm of April 7.

“Die Untertanen”, a choir consisting of musical amateurs from Münster, Germany, will perform songs of Germany, South Africa and Latin America.

The choir’s 20 singers have been singing together for more than 30 years and firmly believe: music unites, touches, and moves, no matter in which culture or country.

With their musical journey to Vietnam, the singers are entering uncharted territory. They consciously aim to explore a variety of musical traditions in Vietnam and their own international repertoire, and will therefore present two concerts together with Vietnamese singers in Hanoi.

The choir will perform with Vietnamese artists at the inner courtyard of Goethe-Institute Hanoi.

The show is open for free.
