The ‘Legacy of Love’ project shines a spotlight on a lesser-known facet of the renowned Vietnamese composer Thanh Tung’s musical legacy: his work as an orchestral conductor and composer during the 1970s. While widely celebrated for his romantic ballads, Thanh Tung’s musical journey extended far beyond love songs. The project, a collaboration between family, musicians, and archivists, aims to showcase his contributions to orchestral music, film scores, and classical crossover compositions. This initiative will culminate in a series of concerts, documentaries, vinyl releases, and publications, providing a comprehensive exploration of Thanh Tung’s diverse musical contributions. The project’s inaugural event, a concert featuring orchestral arrangements of Thanh Tung’s compositions, will be held on September 15th at the Hoan Kiem Theater in Hanoi. This event promises to offer a unique opportunity to experience the breadth and depth of Thanh Tung’s musical artistry, revealing a side of the composer that has long been overlooked. The project aims to introduce a new generation of music lovers to Thanh Tung’s rich and multifaceted musical legacy. By showcasing his work as a conductor and composer, ‘Legacy of Love’ seeks to inspire a deeper appreciation for the enduring power and versatility of Thanh Tung’s music.
