Musician Thanh Tung's music has always been an indispensable companion in the lives of many fans.
His songs are not only nostalgia, memories, and a part of the beautiful youthful past of many previous generations, but are also the present of today's young people.
Understanding the values that musician Thanh Tung left behind, his family, together with the cooperation of those who loved him, embarked on a project that brought a very different breath to familiar works.
Accordingly, “Legacy of Love” will be a Classical Crossover concert with the participation of Vietnam's leading artists, held at 8:00 p.m. on September 15 at Ho Guom Theater (Hanoi).
Classical Crossover is known as the combination of a symphony orchestra with an electronic band, a form that has become quite familiar to many domestic audiences in recent years.
However, "Legacy of Love" is also the first program in which all the most typical works in musician Thanh Tung's career are performed in the form of Classical Crossover and the responsible person is Music Director Tran Manh Hung - a musician considered to be the leading musician in Vietnam today in arranging and arranging symphonic music and has many successes with Vietnamese instrumental works.
In addition, "Legacy of Love" also features elements that promise to create many surprises with many new emotions, namely Saxophone artist Quyen Thien Dac, female pianist Liao Hsin - Chiao, a Taiwanese (Chinese) music doctor, Cello artist Phan Do Phuc and singers Uyen Linh, Lan Nha and Nguyen Ngoc Anh.
Following "Legacy of Love live concert" will be a vinyl project of the same name with 10 selected songs and considered the most immortal love songs of musician Thanh Tung, arranged into Classical Crossover arrangements.
Among them, there will be 2 special songs that are highly appreciated by the audience and experts for both melody and lyrics, "Giọt Nắng Bến Thè" and "Hoa Chrysanthemum Vàng" which will be completely re-arranged as a special gift for music lovers.
With this series of projects "Legacy of Love", Ms. Nguyen Bach Duong - daughter of musician Thanh Tung shared that, "The audience often knows about the three of us as musicians with beautiful love songs. As children, we are even more proud of the image of our father as a well-trained orchestra conductor and a pioneer in arranging and mixing music since the 70s.
I hope the audience can learn another aspect of musician Thanh Tung. At the same time, from this idea, I also hope to bring the sounds and academic images of classical instruments closer to the public through the intimacy and spread of Thanh Tung's works and music."
In addition, musician Thanh Tung's family will also introduce the book - "Legacy of Love - Memories of Thanh Tung", expected to be released in 2025.
This book gathers all the most sincere articles about the talented musician, in which readers will see Thanh Tung's portrait from many different angles.
The articles depict musician Thanh Tung in a subsidy period, a period of renovation, a period of active musical activities alongside his closest friends.
There, audiences who have never met the musician will once again recognize musician Thanh Tung in the most vivid way, as if he were facing them, elegantly dressed, squinting and smiling, cigarette smoke curling through his fingers...
