Performance night with the participation of Meritorious Artist Bich Hong, singer Quang Tu and models
professionals, artists from 6 provinces of the Song Cau basin, folk artists and most of all
extras from his hometown Bac Kan

During the nearly 2-hour duration, the audience at the floating stage enjoyed the unique heritage performances with the resonance of sound and light on the surface of the Cau River. The audience embarked on an artistic journey - where heritage is awakened through each cut, where tradition is recreated with new creative inspiration through the performance of the collection by Designer Thao Giang. Immediately after that was the Tac Xinh dance - a dance imbued with the culture of the San Chay people, combined with the smooth and profound Sang Co melody like the sentimental song of the mountains and forests, performed by the Thai Nguyen Province Folk Artists Troupe.

Then singing and Tinh lute performance, a traditional art form of the Tay and Nung ethnic groups in Bac Kan province. This is not only about lyrics and singing, but also a spiritual connection between people and heaven, earth and ancestors. The performance by Meritorious Artist Ma Trung Truc and Then singing group Bach Thong recreates the Kham Hai ritual - a traditional ritual with a strong cultural and spiritual imprint, with the wish to pray for a good harvest and peace for the village.

Down the Luc Nam River, to the land of Quan Ho, a place that preserves a treasure trove of unique folk music and rich cultural identity of Kinh Bac region. On the background of Quan Ho music, the typical ethnic costumes of Bac Ninh and Bac Giang provinces in the collection of designer Thao Giang show traditional beauty through each flap of the dress, each embroidery line.

The songs “Trang ve Pho” or “Di giu troi ruc roc”... added color and stirred up the atmosphere at the heritage performance night, bringing explosive emotions to the audience. The intangible cultural heritage performance night of the Song Cau basin ended with the invitation ceremony of fermented leaf wine - one of the indispensable features in every festival and happy day of the Tay people.
