On the morning of November 9, the Ao Dai Museum organized a meeting to commemorate and pay tribute to the late musician The Hien called Forever Loving the Forest Orchid Branch .

Attending the event were Associate Professor, Doctor, People's Physician, Major General, Musician Nguyen Hong Son - former Director of Military Hospital 175 ; Director of Ao Dai Museum Huynh Ngoc Van; Singer Le Anh - student of the late musician The Hien, along with students and lecturers from Ho Chi Minh City University of Culture and Ho Chi Minh City Open University.

Songs associated with the name of musician The Hien were performed by students and lecturers in a simple and familiar way such as: Singing about you, Toc em tui ga, I don't know, Trieu doa hoa hong, Lang tham, Moi trai tim mot tam long, Thanh khuc thanh nien tuyen nguyen...

The program especially features singer Le Anh singing the song "Rung orchid branch ". She is the "favorite student" and also the first student of the late musician The Hien, and was taught a lot by him on the path of art.

“I have listened to the song Nhanh Lan Rung for more than 20 years, the melody is like it is in my blood. I am very happy to sing this song for the first time to remember my teacher. Singing Nhanh Lan Rung is like a mission, like my teacher sending his love of music to the audience” - Le Anh emotionally shared.

One thing singer Le Anh feels guilty about towards the late musician The Hien is that when the musician helped her get a certain position, she decided to go in another direction, not to pursue singing.

After the funeral of musician The Hien, Le Anh received three invitations to sing, but she has not decided to return to the stage yet, saying "it depends on fate."

At the meeting, Major General Nguyen Hong Son recounted the first meeting between him and the late musician The Hien, as well as their joint business trips.

He said: “Musician The Hien’s compositions express the feelings of soldiers. Even though he never wore a soldier’s uniform for a single day, he is worthy of being a soldier without a uniform. His songs are always in the hearts of soldiers.”

On behalf of the family of the late musician The Hien, Major General Nguyen Hong Son thanked the Ao Dai Museum for organizing the meaningful program. The exchange session to remember and pay tribute to the late musician The Hien ended, but each participant still felt regretful and regretful for the fate of the talented musician.
