Memories of Hanoi in 2 songs by Nguyen Thanh Trung

Thanh Hương |

With the duo of songs “Thanh am Ha Noi” and “Loneliness in the middle of Ha Noi”, musician Nguyen Thanh Trung evokes many memories of Hanoi.

This duo of musical products is like a tribute from musician Nguyen Thanh Trung to the land of the Capital - where the soul of the mountains and rivers of thousands of years has settled, where a son of Hanoi like him always has nostalgia for a Capital that changes every day. This is also a gift to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of the Capital.

Accordingly, the song “Lonely in Hanoi” opens with the cries, the sounds of Hanoi streets from the past to the present, which have added to the poetic beauty of Hanoi. The simple, rustic lyrics, combined with the sound of the guitar and the voice of male singer Huy Chien (Vietnam National Music Academy), express the feelings of the musician who sometimes feels lonely and lost in the hustle and bustle of Hanoi, a city that is changing every day.

If in the song “Lonely in the Middle of Hanoi” the musician wrote about the silent note in the middle of Hanoi, then with the song “Thanh am Ha Noi”, singer Duc Tuyen with his deep, thick and warm baritone voice has contributed to making Hanoi more beautiful, worthy of the title of city for peace.

Understanding and loving Hanoi, musician Nguyen Thanh Trung has distilled beautiful images and memories and put into his songs about Hanoi a belief, pride, and many desires and hopes.

Therefore, “Lonely in Hanoi” or “Hanoi Sound”, formerly “Old Hanoi”, both carry a gentle, deep melody and are full of narrative, like a confession about missing Hanoi to create a musical space full of emotions and nostalgia.

“Hanoi is not only beautiful because of its natural scenery, but also because of the soul of Hanoians, the love of the people here. Those are gentle smiles, friendly eyes, small but emotional stories.

Hanoi is also a place of constant development, innovation and modernity. Those are my feelings about the beloved capital" - musician Nguyen Thanh Trung expressed.

Also according to musician Nguyen Thanh Trung, like many children of Hanoi, he wants to express his love and gratitude for this land. And music is probably the most interesting way to express it. There have been many musicians composing about Hanoi, and there have been many good works about Hanoi that have left an impression on listeners.

With his heart, passion, thoughts and aesthetics, musician Nguyen Thanh Trung hopes that his work about Hanoi will bring listeners into memories, peaceful and happy moments.
