Concert “Dep Contemporary”
 

Concert “Dep Contemporary”.

Celebrating Vietnamese contemporary beauty, the concert “Đẹp (Beaty) Contemporary” will take place at 7:00 pm on September 2 at Lotter Center Hanoi square, with the participation of singer Ha Anh Tuan, Ngot band, moon lute musician Trung Luong and S-Girls group.
Endearingly dubbed “The man with the flower on his left chest”, Ha Anh Tuan is a Hanoian gentleman known for his melodious acoustic covers of famous songs. His project titled “See, Sing, Share” was a success with his very own style of singing and performing and nothing but unpretentious sincerity, a touching work that’s much like an intimate conversation with the audience.
Immense yourselves in a romantic music ambience, meet and listen to Ngot band telling the stories of life and live through the eyes of a young person and spontaneous melodies, to Trung Luong – the moon lute artist that left a lasting impression in Vietnam’s Got Talent with his renditions of “Fade” and “Nova”, and enjoy the exciting atmosphere with the beautiful, edgy girls of S-Girls – the runner-up of Vietnam’s The X-Factor 2016.
