Students from the Vietnam National University of Arts Education and the Guangxi Arts Institute made an impression with their harmonious rendition of a medley of Vietnamese and Chinese songs, including "Qua cau gio bay" and "Sao troi bien rong". Their performance was marked by smooth, well-coordinated vocals.
Singer Ngoc Ha, winner of the first prize in the Vietnam-China Friendship Singing Contest 2019, performed "Anh trang ben ho sen". The original song is by the Chinese band Phoenix Legend.
The Suc Song Moi traditional orchestra, led by conductor Dong Quang Vinh, also delivered a memorable performance with a medley of folk songs from the three regions of Vietnam (North, Central, and South) and "Chiec khan pieu" (composed by Doan Nho).
The two-hour program featured other performances by singer Vuong Nhat Phuong, a renowned Chinese soprano, Hoang Le Di, a Hong Kong pop singer, and honored artist Phan Thu Lan. The concert concluded with a joint performance of "Viet Nam - Trung Hoa" (composed by Do Nhuan) by artists from both countries.
