The late musician's two daughters, Ha Chau and Bich Thuy, and singer Thuy Trang talked about his career.
During his lifetime, the late musician Bac Son left a strong impression with compositions such as: Em di tren co non, Sa mua giong, Con sao sau...
Musician Bac Son has passed away, but his music still lives on in the hearts of the public. Songs that are more than 30 years old are still being played in many places across the country.
Taking over the musical legacy of her father, Ha Chau, Bich Thuy tried to preserve it by opening a performing arts group called Bac Son Love Songs and many singing competitions, aiming to spread the late musician's songs to the younger generation. According to Bich Thuy, this was also her father's last wish before he passed away.
“Before he passed away, my father left a letter saying that he had a lot of music but it was not developed much. When holding the letter in their hands, Bich Thuy and Ha Chau shed tears; we were determined to do our best to bring our father’s music to more people. Therefore, we founded the Bac Son Love Songs art troupe,” revealed the daughter of the late musician Bac Son.
