As heard at an October 9 press conference, the project is expected to be an annual event that not only brings the world's top music to Vietnam but also utilises all proceeds for charitable activities run by the newspaper. The "Kenny G live in Vietnam," the opening programme, is set to last for over two hours at the National Convention Centre in Nam Tu Liem district, with the Grammy Awards winner and his accompanying band performing all famous compositions throughout his career, such as "Going Home," "Havana," "Romeo & Juliet," and "My Heart Will Go On."
Saxophonist Kenny G, upon receiving the invitation from the organiser, expressed his emotions about the humanistic significance of the show, as it will be the first time he performs for such a large community-oriented programme.
At the press conference, Nhan Dan Editor-in-Chief Le Quoc Minh said that in recent years, the newspaper has organised numerous major artistic and charitable programmes aimed at supporting wounded soldiers, martyrs' families, disadvantaged students, and teachers in remote areas.
