One of the highlights of the program "Echoes of the Fatherland" is a new way of expression, taking the image of bronze drums as a xuyên suốt image, combining real-scene performances with symphonic music, light music, Rock and modern stage and projection techniques, thereby recreating revolutionary historical traditions, the cultural beauty of the nation and creating an emotional and lingering artistic space.
The program features an instrumental performance by the Symphony Orchestra and Thanh Am Xanh group, under the direction of conductor Dong Quang Vinh, along with the convergence of many generations of artists, many performance styles and musical languages creating a unique identity: Heroic yet profound, modern yet imbued with national identity.
With its scale, staging ideas and consistent political message, "Echoes of the Fatherland" promises to become a prominent cultural and artistic event in 2026, contributing to fostering patriotism, arousing the aspiration to contribute and the responsibility to join hands in building and firmly protecting the socialist Vietnamese Fatherland; and at the same time conveying a message about a brave, united, creative and steadfast Vietnam in the new era of development.
