(VOVWORLD) - This man’s music has lived for nearly 70 years and is considered a genre in its own right. 600 songs. Millions of records sold in Japan. Trinh Cong Son, dubbed the Bob Dylan of Vietnam, is simply known as Trinh. 25 years after his death, hundreds of his songs are still sung by heart - at home, in small cafés, at concerts across Vietnam.

Their conversations, performances, and concerns reveal both the fragility and the enduring strength of Vietnam’s musical heritage.
