Concept:
The life of each person with different moments, the emotions of desire, the concern with survival efforts and the rising aspirations like the invisible burden clinging around us. The continuation of such a non-stop process… empty and fulfill as the bubble full of life melts away.
The burdens of campaigning that requires us constantly and create rhythmic tension with colourful of life and desire, constituting moments of sublimation in life.
Spring Gala 2017 Concert and Ballet will be held on 16 and 17 Feb 2017, 8 pm at Hanoi Opera House.
