The programme will attract veteran singers such as People’s Artist Thanh Thuý, Cẩm Vân, and Thanh Ngọc, who will talk about beautiful songs of the city, and the music careers of well-known composers and participating singers.

Singer Thuý will talk about her youth life and music journey in the city, while Vân will tell interesting stories of Trịnh Công Sơn, one of the most famous Vietnamese composers.

Thuý, one of the most popular Vietnamese singers of folk and revolutionary music, won the HTV Singing Contest in 1994 when she was 17, and gained first prize at the National TV Singing Contest in 1997.

In 2023, she was conferred the title of People’s Artist. She is currently the deputy director of the city Department of Culture and Sports.
