The talented musician has left this “temporary world” for 13 years. For the same number of years, in April, Trinh music lovers still remember him through grand stage shows, or in clubhouses, tea rooms…
The late musician Van Cao, when mentioning his talented friend, commented: "In Son's music, we do not see any trace of classical music according to the Western scholarly structure. He writes innocently as if the musical and poetic emotions flow out by themselves." The charm of Trinh Cong Son's music is perhaps right there, that it does not intend to create any school or philosophy, but still penetrates people's hearts like a watering stream. With beautiful and surprisingly unique words and ideas combined with a special structure like a form of folk song that has remained almost unchanged, Trinh Cong Son has conquered millions of hearts not only in the country but also beyond the borders...
He is considered the greatest musician of modern Vietnamese music, with more than 600 songs widely popular. Trinh's music is suitable for all ages and moods, over time Trinh's music is an endless stream in Vietnamese music.
Many singers have shared that they borrowed Trinh's fame to remember their names with the audience. Trinh and his works have won the hearts of the audience. Who in their life has not suddenly hummed Trinh's music melodies? Even without grand concerts, Trinh's music still lives on in its own way, with people who are loyal to this music genre.
Remembering the person who "unlocked" modern music, the program "Bong Nui" commemorating the 13th anniversary of the talented musician's death will reunite the best singers of Trinh's music. Singer Cam Van, who has been singing Trinh's music since she was 10 years old, will sweetly and carefully sing the lyrics reminding the audience of his love. The singer of "Hue-Sai Gon-Ha Noi" will recall memories of Trinh with the songs "Diem Xua", "Tinh Nho", "Nhu Canh Vac Bay"...
Duc Tuan sings Trinh's music with all his heart, he feels that Trinh's songs are his own. Although he is not "fixated" on Trinh's music, he is still called the singers who sing this genre well with the songs "Xin cho toi", "Mua hong", "Ca dao me", "Ben doi huu lonenh"...
The novelty of "Mountain Shadow" is the appearance of "monster" Tung Duong telling life stories through Trinh's music. Tung Duong, since he was very young, had a high-pitched voice like a girl's. Tung Duong also sang very well "Em la bong hong nho" and "Tuoi doi van mong" by Trinh Cong Son. An interesting feeling of the audience when listening to Tung Duong sing Trinh's music with artist A dao in the song "Tien thoai ngam nan".
In particular, in "Bong nui" there is also the appearance of a new "phenomenon" of Trinh's music, Ngoc Mai - a young singer from Hue. Is there any connection with the image of Mai - Khanh Ly of Trinh in the past?
And in the Trinh music night, Bong Hong Nhung, who more than 10 years later became attached to Trinh, was indispensable. Trinh's music has become a part of Hong Nhung's personal art collection. In most stages, Hong Nhung appears with one or two of Trinh's songs. That is the way for Bong Hong Nhung to remember a brother, a friend so close that "she doesn't know what to call him".
With the magic hand of director Pham Hoang Nam, he will tell the audience about Trinh Cong Son's life through music, he tells about the love affairs and life stories of the musician with the most sincerity of his friends and the enchanting sound of Saxophone Tran Manh Tuan.
In particular, in the program at the Viet-Xo Palace, there will also be the appearance and sharing of the feelings of musician Trinh Cong Son's sister, singer Trinh Vinh Trinh. With a perfect sound and lighting crew, a gentle, delicate, luxurious stage screen, orchestra conductor, musician Duong Cam will bring a Trinh music night "Bong Nui" completely different from previous programs. A new but still full of emotions, the most genuine as Trinh music has always been.
