The unnamed song No. 4 (Vu Thanh An) was a highlight of the night, not only because of its splendid arrangement with an orchestra of nearly 40 skillful performers, but also because of the unique combination of the chamber singer Pham Thu Ha and the male pop singer Trong Bac. The most special thing was the information that musician Duc Tri revealed: "I have to apologize to Pham Thu Ha for "hiding" this song for 10 years"...
"In 2013, when producing the album Pham Thu Ha - Like a wandering wind ( released in 2014 - PV ), I composed the arrangement, Ha went into the studio but in the end I decided to temporarily put this song and a few other songs by musician Vu Thanh An aside for another occasion because the album had many highlights. But in the end, it was not until 10 years later that the two of us had the opportunity to perform this song again," said musician Duc Tri.
Similarly, Like a Wandering Wind is an album that "devoured" the duo Duc Tri - Pham Thu Ha a lot of effort, time (and of course, budget)... but never had the chance to resonate vividly until last night (May 17), when it was performed live on stage in the 6th Musique de Salon program - When the sun sets at the Army Theater (HCMC).
The concert featured four singers: Pham Thu Ha, Trung Quan, Nguyen Ha and Trong Bac. The music space with a large-scale chamber orchestra seemed to be reserved for Pham Thu Ha. With the orchestra, she brought Suoi Mo, Tua Nhu Gio Phieu Du, Khi Mau Nang Tan, Domino or O Sole Mio that is so beautiful, satisfying the Southern audience with this reunion.
Trung Quan is a new singer to Musique de Salon because he hasn't really had many opportunities to collaborate with Duc Tri. The musician also humorously revealed that apart from the song recording for the movie Con ma nha ho Vuong , he didn't dare invite Trung Quan (nicknamed "rain saint" by fans) to participate in any show because he was afraid of... rain, and if it rains, how can the audience go to the theater? This time he took the risk of inviting him because he really likes this voice...
And indeed, Duc Tri was not wrong in choosing Trung Quan's singing voice. With Nhung ngay mua den khong, Co thuy khong toi, Buon khong the boi, Va ngay mo mo, Bong may doi toi ..., he made the audience admire and applaud endlessly for his confident and emotional singing when performing the high notes. Because I love you , a hit by his senior Phuong Thanh, was also performed by Trung Quan in a very new way with an extremely impressive "note shooting" performance. In addition to singing confidently, showing off his wide and beautiful vocal range, he also took the lyrics very seriously, limiting his eyes on the screen to remind him of the words (often seen in many music shows today).
With two familiar singers of Musique de Salon , Nguyen Ha and Trong Bac, the audience had the opportunity to "see" Trong Bac leave his comfort zone with a beautiful mid-low voice to challenge himself with high notes in Where autumn begins, Blue silver hair, Like not yet starting, while Nguyen Ha was favored by Duc Tri to sing the hit song When the dream comes back because according to him "many people like Phuong Thanh's version, but for me, I love When the dream comes back the most through Nguyen Ha's performance". However, perhaps because Trong Bac took a slightly higher tone than his voice range, the listener felt like he was "stretching" with the orchestra. The lingering feeling with a beautiful voice like Trong Bac's was when it was something that was just right like: I still wait for you at the old appointment or Love and hate (Delilah). Nguyen Ha was the same, Ha's voice was beautiful and peaceful, that was recognized, but it seemed like she was not focused enough on the song. Even with When the Dream Comes Back , Nguyen Ha still finds it difficult to make listeners feel "in love" as musician Duc Tri introduced...
