[Vnbiz] [MUSIC] Pham Duy / Tuan Ngoc

[Dang T Lan]

Dear anh Hoanh,

However, there are mixed views concerning Pham Duy's Ngay tro ve -  where as
for Tuan Ngoc,
his 'Rieng mot goc troi' performance has raised
unanimous applause.

And did you know that some of the words of the lyrics in PD's songs in NTV
were changed?
 I happened to be invited by a friend who works in the Dept of Information
and Culture ( or is it vice versa? I can never remember :-) )  and she came
with her whole family, and her parents happen to be former researchers in
the said Department. They knew by heart the lyrics of PD's song  a/ when he
wrote them
b/ when he adapted them to perform in South Vietnam  c/ and as they are now
- that is changed for the 2nd time for the purpose of approval.

Some of PD's fans resent that too, but hey, I don't get to see that kind of
performance everyday ( and if I was not invited, I would never have seen it)
so for me it was great.

Something to share in the middle of the week.

Dang Thanh Lan
