The program opened with the performance "The Scholar of La Son" by singers Dang Thuat and Thu Ha, along with the dance troupe of the Ha Tinh Traditional Arts Theatre. The performance recreated the homeland of Hong Mountain and La River, with its tradition of studiousness and the lullabies sung by his mother that nurtured and shaped Nguyen Thiep's character and personality.
Under the Tay Son dynasty, Nguyen Thiep served the king and the country, becoming a national scholar in the 18th century. This performance also features songs from today's generation expressing gratitude to this talented individual, a heartfelt tribute to the national hero - La Son scholar Nguyen Thiep.
An excerpt from the opera "The Hermit of Bui Phong Mountain" takes the audience back to the countryside of Nghe An province on the Thien Nhan mountain range. This is the place that marks the years when La Son Phu Tu, after resigning from his official position, came to live in seclusion, yet his heart remained deeply concerned about the affairs of the nation. In the photo: The image of La Son Phu Tu is recreated through the performance of actor Huu The (Ha Tinh Traditional Arts Theatre).
Actress Thanh Nguyen (Hanoi National Theatre) portrays Dang Thi Nghi, the virtuous wife of La Son Phu Tu Nguyen Thiep. She is a woman who diligently stands by her husband's side, always hoping he will use his talents to help others.
The scene depicts King Quang Trung Nguyen Hue (played by actor Du Quang Hung) expressing his earnest desire to find a talented person by sending his close advisors to Bui Phong Mountain three times to request Nguyen Thiep to come and help the country. Faced with the advisors' dismissive attitude towards Nguyen Thiep, he reprimanded them and expressed his respect for the wise and virtuous man.
On the third occasion, when Le Chieu Thong led 290,000 Qing troops to invade our country, King Quang Trung marched from Phu Xuan to the North to suppress the invaders, and Nguyen Thiep finally came down from the mountains to meet him. When Nguyen Thiep met him, King Quang Trung expressed his overwhelming joy.
Trusting and heeding Nguyen Thiep's advice, King Quang Trung quickly decided to march out and defeat the 290,000 invading Qing troops, preserving the country's borders and achieving independence for the nation in the spring of 1789.
Concluding the musical drama "The Hermit of Bui Phong Mountain" was the song "The Heroic March of Tay Son" by composer Le Quang, performed by singer Tien Hung and the dance troupe of the Ha Tinh National Traditional Theatre. The performance had a heroic feel, depicting the swift march of the Tay Son army, under the leadership of King Quang Trung, advancing north to defeat the invaders and reclaim the sacred territory of the Fatherland.
The excerpt from the opera "Phoenix - Central Capital" expresses King Quang Trung's aspiration to choose a location for establishing a capital to pacify the country. The king summoned Nguyen Thiep and asked for his opinion. "His words were like a weight lifted from the heart" when Nguyen Thiep pointed out that the Phoenix - Central Capital region was a land of auspicious energy and mountains. King Quang Trung was overjoyed and decided to entrust Nguyen Thiep and other renowned scholars with preparing for the construction of the new capital.
The songs "Returning to My Hometown Ha Tinh" by composer Phan Huy Ha and "Ha Tinh, Land of Phoenixes" by composer An Thuyen, performed by Dang Thuat, Thu Ha, and the dance troupe of the Ha Tinh National Traditional Music Theatre, concluded the deeply moving art program commemorating the 300th anniversary of the birth of La Son Phu Tu Nguyen Thiep.
