The album with songs from "Truyen thuy Co Loa" to "Hoang de ao vai" is an impressive musical journey.
The first song in the "Vietnamese Soul" genre - "The Legend of Co Loa" - was written by Hoai An in 2000-2001. Since then, Hoai An has continued to extend the flow of epic - legend - fairy tale music with compositions such as Truong Chi - My Nnuong, Me Linh Drum, Lau Flag... to the latest songs Ly Trieu Danh Tuong, Duc Thanh Tran (2022), Hoang De Ao Vai (2023). "I consider this a musical work of my life" - Hoai An shared.
"When I held the disc in my hand, the first thing I wanted to do was go home and show it to my parents - who have always supported and inspired me on this journey" - Hoai An said.

"I want to awaken the love of Vietnamese history and national pride through melodies and lyrics. From the Dong A spirit to folk love stories, from the heroic drum beats to the legend of the Tet cake - all carry within them the "Vietnamese Soul" with a strong identity" - Hoai An expressed.
In the future, Hoai An hopes that the songs "Vietnamese Soul" will spread widely in school environments, festival programs, community performances, and even cartoons oreducational games if conditions allow.
Hoai An said that his father - was the person who inspired him about Vietnamese history, national heroes, cultural celebrities...
Talking about pursuing the creative flow of Epics - Legends - Fairy Tales, musician Hoai An said: "My father inspired me about Vietnamese history, about national heroes, cultural celebrities... so I have a special affection for Vietnamese history and culture. Personally, I was also inspired by the songs I heard since I was little, such as Hon vong phu (Le Thuong), Trau cau (Phan Huynh Dieu)...
In fact, I wrote "Hon Viet" over many periods of time, sometimes for several years in a row without writing any articles, and sometimes every week I had a new article. I felt a "fate" with "Hon Viet", like this is something I love, want to do, and will be able to do.
Up to now, I have about 800 songs, most of which have been released, so when writing, I determine that there must be a "new" element in the music or lyrics, if both are possible, that's great. I usually prioritize beautiful, smooth melodies... I only use impressive transitions with a few songs."
