Two Vietnamese pianists have won second prize at the International Mozart Competition in Bangkok, Thailand.

  

The competition attracted 19 young contestants from Thailand, China and Vietnam. Two contestants from Thailand and China won first prize while Dang Viet Ha and Nguyen Linh Uyen from Vietnam secured second prize.

 

Organizer Mongkhol Chayasirisobhol said that the Vietnamese contestants are talented, especially Dang Viet Ha, the third-year student at the National University of Singapore where many Thai students are studying. Although the competition has not attracted as many contestants as the piano competition, it was successful.

 

The contest helped participants exchange experiences and strengthen relations among neighbouring countries, Mongkhol said.
