At the beginning of the program, the mapping performance "Follow the footprint" full of emotion, combined with the mashup songs "The Singing River" and "Singing from the city name". The repertoire has clearly portrayed the ideal portrait, noble ideal, kind heart and resilient will of President Ho Chi Minh.
The program continues to bring the audience according to Uncle Ho's footprints through heroic historical journeys. After thirty years of finding a way to save the country, in 1941, he returned to Pac Po, bringing the light of the truth about the proletariat revolution to liberate the nation. The song "Singing in the middle of Pac Bo Forest" with the heroic song "together goes to Hong Binh - nineteen August - Revelation" has revived this period. The audience also revived the majestic atmosphere of the historic Dien Bien Phu campaign with the "Tug of Artillery - Road to the front - Liberation of Dien Bien", reminding the spirit of "Death for the Fatherland to be born".
Many audiences expressed their emotions before the meaningful show. Ms. Nguyen Hong Nga (residing in Binh Thanh District) shared: A beautiful and touching performance, clearly demonstrating Uncle Hos journey to the north. I feel moved when remembering Uncle Ho and proud of our Vietnamese people.
The art program "Journey of the Century" is not only a deep gratitude to President Ho Chi Minh but also an endless source of inspiration, motivating generations of Vietnam to continue on the path to build a "more dignified, bigger and more beautiful" country, worthy of what he has contributed.
