Cover of the music book "Collection of 100 songs composed about Nha Trang city" just released by Nha Trang City People's Committee. |
"Collection of 100 songs composed about Nha Trang city" was released on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the construction and development of Nha Trang city (1924 - 2024), 15 years of Nha Trang being recognized as a class I urban area under Khanh Hoa province (2009 - 2024) as a spiritual gift to the people of the coastal city. The book contributes to introducing the land and people of the city. Thereby encouraging and motivating the people of the city to promote their will of self-reliance, self-reliance, aspirations for development, and strive to build their homeland Nha Trang to become increasingly rich and civilized; people's lives to become more prosperous and happy. The city hopes that authors and musicians will continue to have quality compositions about the land and people of Nha Trang to popularize and serve the music-loving public, as well as to enrich the musical treasure of the city on the East Sea that has gone through 100 years of construction and development.
From a small fishing village, Nha Trang has grown to become a dynamic urban area of the South Central - Central Highlands region and a developed tourist city of the whole country. For generations, Nha Trang has been blessed by nature with blue sea, white sand, and golden sunshine all year round, beautiful and peaceful; the people of Nha Trang are honest, friendly, and hospitable. These are the catalysts for professional and amateur musicians to devote their feelings to writing lyrics and melodies about the coastal city of Nha Trang. The appearance of many good songs about Nha Trang further proves that this is a lyrical city. Because in the development journey of a land, it would be a mistake if there were no poetic qualities of literary and artistic works in general and music in particular.
