The orchestra, which was established in 1984 and has garnered acclaim around the world through concert tours, will perform two classical Mozart pieces (Clarinet Concerto in A Major and Symphony No. 40 in G Minor), conducted by maestro Honna Tetsuji, as part of “The Metropole Concert: Timeless Mozart with the VNSO.”

The special event will be held on Saturday, Nov. 23 starting at 6 p.m.

Before the concert, guests will be served gourmet canapés and welcome drinks from the hotel’s Bamboo Bar at the enchanting poolside setting.

Le Beaulieu is Metropole Hanoi’s signature French fine-dining restaurant renowned for its modern French cuisine with nods to classical French flavors and an emphasis on seasonality and superior ingredients. While there are some traditional French touches, the presentation is stylish, with well-balanced portions and fresh produce from France, Vietnam and elsewhere.

The concert comes a month after Le Beaulieu welcomed La Tour d’Argent, the legendary 400-year-old Parisian dining establishment that inspired the hit 2007 Disney movie Ratatouille, for a series of highly exclusive meals in October.

Operating in its current space since 1901, Le Beaulieu is believed to be the oldest continually operating restaurant in Vietnam. It was recently listed in the prestigious MICHELIN Guide 2024.
