A Bridge Between Italy and Vietnam Through Electronic MusicWe are excited to present Connessione, a cultural initiative designed to connect Italy and Vietnam through the universal language of music. Scheduled for January 19 in Hanoi, this project combines artistic innovation with community engagement, offering a unique platform for collaboration between two extraordinary artists—Marco Maldarella and Trinh Minh—and Vietnam’s dynamic music scene.
Overview
Connessione comprises an interactive workshop and a mini-festival that celebrate the convergence of different creative worlds:
Marco Maldarella (Italy): An acclaimed innovator in sound modulation and experimental sound design, Maldarella crafts immersive electronic landscapes that challenge and redefine techno’s boundaries.
Trinh Minh (Vietnam): A veteran and pioneer in Vietnam’s music scene, Minh is a versatile artist whose work spans electronic experimentation, classical music, and traditional Vietnamese influences. His creative projects highlight the rich heritage of Vietnamese music, bridging it with modern forms to create a unique sonic identity.
Concept
At its core, Connessione explores the intersection of two distinct artistic philosophies:
Maldarella’s precise, exploratory work in sound modulation and synthesis.
Minh’s seamless fusion of classical, traditional, and electronic elements.
Despite their differences, both artists share a commitment to innovation and a deep respect for sound as a medium of storytelling. This synergy makes Connessione a rare opportunity to discover how their worlds intersect, creating new artistic possibilities.
Objectives
Skill Sharing: Facilitate hands-on workshops focusing on sound modulation, advanced synthesis techniques, and the integration of traditional and modern elements.
Community Engagement: Invite Vietnam-based music professionals—artists, producers, and promoters—to participate in an open dialogue, fostering connections and collaborations.
Cultural Exchange: Create a space for Italian and Vietnamese artists to share their traditions, techniques, and artistic visions.
Celebration of Creativity: Culminate in a mini-festival, showcasing the results of this exchange through performances that blend cultural and musical diversity.
Workshop Details
The workshops are designed to empower participants by:
Teaching innovative sound modulation techniques with Marco Maldarella.
Exploring the incorporation of Vietnamese traditional sounds and classical music into electronic frameworks, guided by Trinh Minh.
Engaging in collaborative sound design sessions, where both artists demonstrate how their approaches can merge to produce unique compositions.
Mini-Festival and Networking
The evening will transform into a vibrant celebration of music and creativity.
Alongside performances by Marco Maldarella and Trinh Minh, the mini-festival will feature live performances by other talented artists from local and global communities. This platform will showcase Vietnam’s diverse music community, further enriched by contributions from artists within our broader network.
Additionally, this event will act as a hub for Vietnam-based industry professionals to connect, exchange ideas, and discuss potential collaborations in an informal and inspiring setting.
Impact
Cultural Dialogue: Strengthening ties between Italy and Vietnam by showcasing their artistic traditions and innovations.
Skill Development: Providing Vietnamese musicians and producers with practical knowledge and inspiration.
Community Building: Creating meaningful connections between artists, industry professionals, and audiences, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose.
Promotion of Diversity: Highlighting the richness of Vietnamese traditional music alongside contemporary electronic and classical innovations.
Connessione is more than an event—it’s a celebration of music’s transformative power to unite cultures and people. With the Italian Embassy’s support, we aim to make this project a lasting contribution to the vibrant artistic dialogue between Italy and Vietnam.
We look forward to collaborating with you to bring this inspiring vision to life.
