A video recording the moment a foreigner performed a violin of Vietnamese songs has received great attention from many netizens. The overseas man played the violin of the song "Noi tay lon" by the late musician Trinh Cong Son at Bach Dang Wharf in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City.
In the vibrant atmosphere responding to the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification, viewers are even more moved when Vietnamese songs have the power to inspire foreigners.
According to Lao Dong's research, the man appearing in the video is a French male violinist.
Sharing with Lao Dong, Mr. Noel Mc Kay (63 years old) was very surprised because his moment playing the instrument was so loved. The violinist has lived in Vietnam for a year and is currently working in Ho Chi Minh City.
He clearly felt that one of the most anticipated activities for Vietnamese people in 2025 was the National Celebration Ceremony and the parade and parade program taking place on the morning of April 30.
"I know that the 50th Anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification in Ho Chi Minh City is very important and sacred to the Vietnamese people. Recently, I have had the opportunity to watch live the preliminary inspection ceremonies of parades and parades. I am very happy and looking forward to the celebration," said Mr. Noel.
The male artist added: "When I suggested playing a song with a suitable content for this event, my wife, a legitimate Vietnamese woman, suggested to me "Connecting a big bracelet". I find the melody of the song both beautiful and heroic.
When I listened to my wife explain the lyrics, I felt connected to the patriotism of the Vietnamese people. So I am proud to have the opportunity to perform this song in front of everyone."

Mr. Mc Kay expressed his gratitude for the attention and listening of Vietnamese audiences. On the occasion of the April 30 grand ceremony, the male artist revealed that he will join the crowd to participate in the grand ceremony. He plans to express his love for Vietnam through a violin of his.
"Currently, I am practicing another Vietnamese song, specifically the song "Spring in Ho Chi Minh City" and hope to perform that song in the next few days," he said.
In addition, Mr. Noel Mc Kay is constantly admiring the beauty of the S-shaped strip of land. He had the opportunity to visit provinces and cities such as Hanoi, Da Nang, Hoi An, Da Lat, Tay Ninh and Vung Tau.
For him, Vietnam is a beautiful, safe country with great cuisine, kind and friendly people. He noticed that Vietnamese people love songs about national pride and love for their homeland.
Therefore, he was inspired to learn and play more Vietnamese songs. In addition to music, what he cherishes most is the traditional cultural values, warm smiles and the spirit of Forgiveness of the Vietnamese people.
