Singer Hoang Hong Ngoc opens up about his musical journey and soldier life

On the evening of August 8, at the Army Theater ( Hanoi ), the music night Bong hoa anh thep took place, the first solo live show of Hoang Hong Ngoc, the champion of Sao Mai 2015.

The program consists of 16 performances, divided into 3 chapters: Sprouting, Fragrance and Steel Light. Of which, 14 songs were composed by Hoang Hong Ngoc himself, with the participation of close friends and colleagues such as: Oplus Group, Thu Thuy, Hong Duyen, Bich Ngoc, Le Minh Ngoc, Mai Trang, Thu Hien... with the band Binh Van and director Huy Cong.

The music night opened with the vibrant song Ganh ngoc giong uoc mo , when Hoang Hong Ngoc appeared gracefully in a pure white ao dai. The performance vividly portrayed the image of a hard-working mother and a simple, close but emotional schoolgirl, creating an impressive and profound start to the program.

Immediately after that, Hello Hanoi of the Future took the audience back to the innocent school years. The combination of Hoang Hong Ngoc and the dancers created a youthful, pure space, opening up a journey of "germination" in music .

From the bustling atmosphere, the program brought the audience to a gentle emotional flow with Spring Love Song performed by Hong Duyen, I think of you by Minh Thuy.

The emotional flow of the program continued through the performance of "What Cannot Be Lost" , performed by Hoang Hong Ngoc, Bich Ngoc and Hong Duyen. This performance touched the hearts of many audiences when the stage recreated the image of a daughter writing a letter to her mother at a simple wooden table, under warm yellow lights and pure white pages.

The most profound highlight is Hoang Hong Ngoc's sincere and soulful reading voice in the presentation of Letter to Mother. Hoang Hong Ngoc's reading voice is full of emotion:

“For years now, I have been struggling to make any significant achievements. There are always problems with exams, there are days when I don’t get paid for performing, and when I return to my rented room, I don’t even have the last packet of instant noodles left… My friends are all dressed up, but I have to bow my head and work.”

The moment of emotional explosion came when Hoang Hong Ngoc appeared brilliantly in Sen - Proudly I am a female soldier . She wore a long dress inspired by lotus petals, blending with the female dancers in the soft lotus leaves, creating a scene that was both graceful and exuded a strong aura.

Right in the performance, Hoang Hong Ngoc suddenly changed into a military uniform, creating a strong change in image and emotion.

Then, she put on her camouflage uniform and sang "Love you soldier" enthusiastically with the energetic trumpet accompaniment of Huy Raw.

Next, the Oplus group brought the song Noong oi, bustling like a mountain festival. Four young men appeared in border guard uniforms, their strong voices blending with Sen Hoang My Lam and a group of female dancers dressed as mountain girls, with Pieu scarves and neatly tied hair.

The singing, music and lively dances swept the entire audience into the joyful whirl of the mountains and forests.

Next is Anh ve mien Bazan and Nghia tinh quan dan, opening up a colorful musical picture: the resounding gong sounds of the Central Highlands artists, the melodious sound of the panpipes of the Northwest boys, bamboo baskets, bundles of green bamboo leaves, rustic bamboo stalls and colorful Pieu scarves.

Hoang Hong Ngoc, Oplus, Bich Ngoc, Minh Thuy, Oanh Ori and the dancers completely transformed into regional identities, taking the audience on a journey through the Central Highlands and Northwest.

After Thu Thuy's powerful performance of Underground Waves , the atmosphere in the auditorium was pushed to its peak when Hoang Hong Ngoc appeared in military uniform, performing the theme song Steel Flower .

Sharing with Dan Tri reporter, Hoang Hong Ngoc said the name Bong hoa anh thep is also her composition.

Initially, the song was written to honor female soldiers - women who have to train their will and courage through many challenges, both gentle and resilient.

“But the more I sing, the more I realize that it is also the image of my mother and of millions of Vietnamese women - flowers that shine not with fire, but with inner strength,” Hoang Hong Ngoc said emotionally.

The song I'm Proud to Be the Future of Vietnam ended the music night with the sound of confetti cannons, the red national flag fluttering and the collective singing echoing throughout the auditorium.

Hoang Hong Ngoc invited his mother, People's Artist Ha Thuy, People's Artist Hong Hanh, teachers, friends, the most important woman in his life to the stage, then handed the audience the lotus flowers, a symbol of perseverance and strong vitality.

The Steel Flower is not simply a music night, but also contributes to honoring the beauty of female soldiers in the new era, both preserving traditional identity and being dynamic, creative and deeply integrated with modern trends.

According to Hoang Hong Ngoc, the success of the live show not only comes from the constant efforts of herself and her crew, but also thanks to the attention and special support from the head of the General Department of Politics.

In particular, the female singer emphasized the dedicated support of the leadership of the Army Music and Dance Theater, including Colonel, People's Artist Hong Hanh, Director of the Theater, whom she considers one of the people who had the most profound influence on her musical career as well as her military career.

The Steel Flower Liveshow is like a brilliant bouquet of flowers, blending into the festive atmosphere celebrating the 80th anniversary of National Day, September 2nd, contributing to lighting up national pride on this important occasion.
