The "10th Anniversary Culture Show' will feature a performance by Bryan Charles Wilson, a cellist from America at 5pm on July 26 in 170 Ngọc Khánh Street. 

He will be joined by đàn bầu player Ngô Trà My, đàn tranh player Phạm Trà My, and DJ Trí Minh.

Wilson will take the audience on a musical journey, starting with his new album, Tri Ân, where he skillfully reimagines Vietnamese music through the sounds of the cello.

Wilson will also collaborate with talented Vietnamese artists to create a mesmerizing performance that combines his newly composed works for cello with traditional instruments such as the đàn tranh (string zither) and the đàn bầu (monochord).

This collaboration will go beyond boundaries as the artists engage in a profound musical conversation, blending the enchanting sounds of these beautiful instruments with captivating electronic music.
