Pianists Phuong Hanh and Phong Lan and flutist Viet Tu will accompany the vocalists during the show.

The performance will highlight Saigon Choir, comprising over 50 emerging classical singers and performers, which has earned fame through concerts such as A Broadway Journey, International Voices in collaboration with Yale Alumni Chorus and the opera Carmen.

The program will include excerpts from Handel’s oratorio Messiah, such as Hallelujah, For Unto Us A Child Is Born and The Trumpet Shall Sound.

Messiah is an English-language oratorio composed in 1741. It was first performed in 1742 and has become one of the most frequently performed works during the Christmas season.

The night will continue with traditional classic carols such as Joy to the World, I Hear A Harp Eternal, and We Wish You A Merry Christmas.

The concert will begin at 8 pm at the conservatory’s concert hall.
