The piece, which opens Hien’s album *Lap Lanh Vang Sao*, retains the original melody of "Nguoi Ha Noi" while incorporating classical violin techniques. The music conveys a message of gratitude and the responsibility of young people to preserve peace and contribute to the country.

Directed by Gianmarco Maccabruno Giommetti, a close collaborator of Hien’s, the music video features over 60 portraits of Hanoi residents and more than 30 iconic locations in the capital, capturing modern life while preserving images of older generations.

The late composer Nguyen Dinh Thi wrote the song "Nguoi Ha Noi" in early 1947, praising the fighting spirit of the people. It later became the theme song for Hanoi Radio - Television. According to musician Duc Trinh, the piece, conceived with a musical language, is one of the most valuable songs ever written about the capital.

Trinh Minh Hien has created numerous works expressing her love for Vietnam and its people.

Hien's album *Lap Lanh Vang Sao*, commemorating 80 years of National Day, includes 9 works. Eight are instrumental arrangements of revolutionary songs, adapted for violin. Each melody represents a moment in history, spanning the country with titles like "Que Em", "Quang Binh Que Ta Oi", "Co Gai Vot Chong", "Biet On Chi Vo Thi Sau", and "Bai Ca Ben Canh Vong".

The tracks are arranged chronologically from 1945 to the present, representing a musical journey through 80 years of the nation's independence. "Revolutionary music is intertwined with the nation's destiny. I am passionate about every melody of the homeland and want to paint with the sounds of the violin," Hien said. The project also includes a new song, "Bien Song", composed by Hien, which celebrates the soldiers of Truong Sa.

Born in 1980 in Hanoi, Trinh Minh Hien graduated at the top of her class from the Vietnam National Academy of Music in 2003. In April 2023, she released the music video "Dat Nuoc Tron Niem Vui" and the album *Phuong Linh*, featuring 12 pieces she arranged, composed, and performed solo with other artists. For National Day on 2/9/2022, she released a solo violin version of the national anthem. In 9/2023, she created "Song Truong Sa", capturing the lives of soldiers guarding the islands.
