The concert provided an opportunity to increase the mutual understanding of the culture of each country among the Vietnamese and US students, who share a similar passion for music despite their geological distance.

The event was staged as part of the Vietnam tour of Juniata University’s Choir Concert, during which they are scheduled to perform in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, under the baton of acclaimed conductor Russ Shelley.

Over the past 23 years, the choir has toured many different countries around the world, including France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Ireland and Costa Rica, to honour the beauty of choral music and perfect their performance skills.
