The Hanoi Ca Tru Club is launching free weekly performances, starting August 31, to popularize one of the most preserved Vietnamese traditional art forms and a piece of world cultural heritage.

Located at 34 Hoang Cau Street, the weekly show will take place from 8.30pm until 10pm. Famous traditional instrumentalists will be there, including Ngoc Anh (flute), Thu Ha (36-stringed zither), Thanh Nam (Drum), Ba Hai (three stringed “day”) and Bach Van (singer). The artists will perform both classic “ca tru” melodies and contemporary music on traditional instruments.

Space is availed on a first come first serve basis. There is no need to book in advance.-VNA
