“Country full of joy”: Old song given a fresh sound

48 years after it was first released, the melody of the song “Đất nước trọn niềm vui” (Country Full of Joy) by musician Hoàng Hà has been given a fresh sound through the violin.

Artist Trinh Minh Hien released a music video for “Country Full of Joy” on the occasion of the 48th anniversary of national reunification (April 30, 1975).

The video tells the story of two characters. The first is a veteran, played by People’s Artist Quoc Tri, who took part in the Ho Chi Minh campaign in 1975.

The second character is a young woman, played by Trinh Minh Hien, who stands in front of the Independence Palace playing the violin and rejoicing in the victory.

The violin version is composed as an echo of the heroic and historical milestone of the nation.

Artist Trinh Minh Hien began playing the violin at the age of 6. In 1987 she was accepted into the Vietnam National Academy of Music with the highest score. She was a member of the Vietnam National Symphony Orchestra between 2004 and 2020./.
