The Sound of the Country by Duong Quoc Hung

Duong Quoc Hung released 2 products at the same time: album and EP

On the evening of April 14, singer-songwriter Duong Quoc Hung officially released two music products, including the album "Thanh am dat nuoc" and the EP "Thanh pho thang minh cung dat nuoc" (extended music disc). The two products are part of the project "Love songs to build the Fatherland" that the male artist has been working on for many years.

The album "Sound of the Country" includes 9 songs that are heroic songs praising the heroic fighting and sacrifice of many generations for the freedom and independence of the homeland.

The album is like a musical film. The emotions are both strange and familiar with the Epic music genre (strong emotional music with a heroic and tragic style) mainly recreating a time of bullets and bombs, blood and pain, but also full of pride, aspiration, optimism, fighting with the belief in victory.

According to Duong Quoc Hung, nowadays, there are too many modern world music genres that are massively penetrating the youth. The country's homeland music and Vietnamese folk songs are not given much attention and development to the next generation. He wants to be the one to keep the fire and pass on the fire of traditional homeland music, spreading love, gratitude, encouraging construction work, and living responsibly towards the homeland and the Fatherland to more audiences, especially the younger generation.

He is carrying out a project to give to Ho Chi Minh City on the occasion of an upcoming special event.

"The combination of the sounds of the Epic music era with traditional instruments such as the monochord, bamboo flute, zither... sometimes brings a gentle, energetic sound, sometimes a strong, majestic blend of familiar melodies, bringing a new breath and a new coat to the immortal songs of the country's folk music.

Through that, further spreading the spirit of construction, love and national pride. Music makes us brave, let's listen and feel with the slow sounds blending into each high and low note of Epic music. Sometimes strong, sometimes deep, full of emotion and energy, feeling like a wave rushing into your soul, so that optimism, pride, positivity and faith will last forever" - Duong Quoc Hung shared.

The EP "The City Rising with the Country" is a new composition about Ho Chi Minh City with a bustling, majestic rhythm as a greeting to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and the reunification of the country. Duong Quoc Hung expressed that he made this EP as a way to remind today's generation of gratitude, of the dedication, sacrifices and glorious victories of our ancestors in the resistance war for national independence and liberation.

Duong Quoc Hung is known as a young singer but now he has changed direction.

"Previously, I was known in the playgrounds for young professional singers, but later the audience saw and heard me sing in many mainstream music programs with songs about the homeland. It was the homeland music that made me see my musical path clearly, giving me more strength, confidence in my voice and my decisions.

The idea of ​​the project "Love songs to build the Fatherland" was born with the desire to contribute, the desire to be the next generation to preserve and develop the country's homeland music. After two new album and EP products today, I will continue to carry out unfinished plans and projects for light music and simultaneously carry out songs and projects about traditional music. Surely the project "Love songs to build the Fatherland" will accompany Hung until the end of his musical career" - Duong Quoc Hung confided.
