Louvre Musicians to perform Mozart's immortal music at Ho Guom Opera
The timeless compositions of Mozart's music will be performed by the French orchestra under the baton of Étienne Lemieux-Després, featuring singer Sofia Savenko.

The capital's audiences will be immersed in Mozart's musical universe when the French orchestra Les Musiciens du Louvre performs Bei Momenti (Beautiful Moment) at the Ho Guom Opera on August 23 and 24.
Under the baton of conductor Étienne Lemieux-Després and with soprano Sofia Savenko, the French orchestra will perform immortal pieces by the musical genius Mozart, including the Serenade in G major: Eine kleine Nachtmusik, K. 525.
Eine Kleine Nachtmusik was composed by Mozart in Vienna in 1787; at the same time, he was composing the opera Don Giovanni. The German title Eine kleine Nachtmusik was given by Mozart and means "a short evening song". Unlike Mozart's previous serenades, this one was written for a small chamber ensemble of two violins, viola, cello, and double bass. In modern renditions of this serenade, each element is often performed by a larger ensemble.
