A ceremony to honor Vi-Giam folk singing of Nghe An and Ha Tinh province will be held in Vinh city, Nghe An province on the evening of January 31.
The same day, the Nghe An provincial Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism held a meeting with people who have greatly contributed to the preservation and compilation of Vi-Giam folk singing dossier. The honorees included researchers, managers, artisans, and Vi-Giam folk singing clubs.
