The Toyota Concert 2012 through Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia got
underway in Phnom Penh for the first time on July 28, as part of
activities to mark the 45th anniversary of the Vietnam – Cambodia

The event was jointly organised by the Vietnam National Symphony Orchestra (VNSO) and the Toyota Vietnam Foundation.
Under
the baton of Japanese conductor Honna Tetsuji, the event also saw the
presence of Vietnamese singer Trinh Thanh Binh and other artists from
Cambodia and VNSO.
The participating artists performed works
written by Vietnamese musicians Trong Bang, Hoang Viet, and former
