International award-winning pianist Caroline Fischer is on a concert tour in Tunisia, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia at the invitation of the German embassies.
During her tour in Hanoi, the artist taught three master classes at the Inspiritu School of Music in Hanoi on December 10 and gave a concert at the Vietnam National Academy of Music in Hanoi on December 11.
At the concert, Fischer delighted the audience with works from her newly released music album entitled Magical Christmas Fantasies, including works by Bach, Mozart, Lange, Svoboda, von Walden, Helbig, and Thiessen. For classical music lovers, as well as anyone who enjoys Christmas music, this magnificent fusion of rare and unheard piano transcriptions was an amazing experience.
Fischer's CD includes familiar favorites, wonderful rarities, and previously unreleased piano arrangements, some of which have never been recorded on CD. It is an outstanding selection for classical music devotees as well as those who simply love to listen to Christmas carols.
