An acoustic journey across Vietnamese soundscapes. From the majestic sounds of court music to the subtle flow of lullabies, from the haunting voices of chanted poetry and classical chamber music to the lively rhythms of the village festival songs. The Vietnamese zither, skin drum, bronze bells, coin clappers, wooden sticks and voice evocatively conjure up the Vietnamese soundscapes.
Press quotes:
“Le Thi Kim's soaring voice and the delicate, enchanting rhythms of the music create a memorable atmosphere, and a wonderful introduction to the lovely music of Vietnam.”
