At the liveshow, Kenny G and the band are going to perform their greatest hits such as Going Home, Forever in Love, Havana, My Heart will Go On and Romeo and Juliet, as well as new pieces in the newest album Brazilian Nights, which was released in February of this year.

“After the VPBank Concert 2014 with Richard Claydermann, we received many suggestions from our audience, many of which are customers and partners of VPBank, on bringing more famous musicians to Vietnam,” said Tran Tuan Viet, director of PR and Marketing of VPBank.

“It’s great to be trusted with this task, but it’s a lot of pressure too because the audience here has a taste for high quality,” he said. “Bringing famous musicians to Vietnam is the way we thank you for your love for VPBank as we continue on our mission to bring prosperity, both material and spiritual, to Vietnam.

American saxophonist Kenny G has recorded hundreds of songs that belong to many genres such as smooth jazz, R&B, Pop and Latin in the past 30 years. The only instrumentalist who received a Grammy with Forever in Love in 1994, Kenny G also earned a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for playing the longest note ever recorded on a saxophone, of 45 minutes and 47 seconds. He has collaborated with many famous singers such as Andrea Bocelli, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion and Toni Braxton.

Kenny G is a household name for Vietnamese born in the 70s and 80s with pieces that touch people’s hearts. As of now his music is still very much loved in the country. His appearance this time is considered a big surprise gift for the Vietnamese audience.
