A nostalgic look at the past and the
hearty welcome to the future will mark the 15 th anniversary of “Duyen
Dang Vietnam” (Charming Vietnam) music gala this year, organisers said
on December 10.
The 21 st edition of the four-day music gala on New Year’s Eve will open to the strains of the international hit “Bonjour Vietnam” by Vietnamese-Belgian singer Pham Quynh Anh, composed by French singer and composer Marc Lavoine.
Nguyen Cong Khe, chairman of the Thanh Nien Media Corporation which initiated the event, said “The song made her famous among the Vietnamese people, and it will be the theme of Duyen Dang Vietnam 21– Chao Vietnam (Hello Vietnam ).”
Addressing a press conference held to announce the event on December 10, Khe said that the event had been the launching pad for many famous Vietnamese singers like My Linh, Thanh Lam, Dang Vinh Hung, Quang Dung and Duc Tuan.
“In return, all of them gather together at the end of every year in this annual programme, which can be considered one of the largest music and fashion shows of the year.”
Popular overseas Vietnamese singers – Elvis Phuong and Duy Quang will perform the song “Tro ve mai nha xua” (Vietnamese version of Come Back to Soriento) with lyrics by composer Pham Duy.
“Singer Dam Vinh Hung asked me to compose a song to reciprocate Pham Quynh Anh’s “Bonjour Vietnam ”. I hope that the song “Chao Vietnam mot ngay moi” (Hello Vietnam on a New Day) written by Hung and music composed by myself will be a special highlight of this programme,” musician Le Quang said.
