Representatives of the family of the late musician Trịnh Công Sơn attended the program.

The concert "25 Years Remembering Trinh Cong Son" is part of a series of activities commemorating the 25th anniversary of the death of musician Trinh Cong Son, held in many provinces and cities nationwide. Ha Tinh is the first locality in the North Central region chosen by the late musician's family to host the program. The concert features 25 songs performed by many famous singers such as Duc Tuan, Ha Le, Kyo York, Cece Truong, Tan Son, Viet Thu, Dam Vinh Hung, Le Quyen, Quang Dung, Cam Van, etc., creating a musical space filled with emotions about love for the homeland, reflections on the human condition, and many humanistic messages.

The program is structured into three chapters: "Vietnam, My Homeland"; "We Return to Ha Tinh"; and "What Have We Seen Tonight?". In the first chapter, "Vietnam, My Homeland," the audience is immersed in the profound melodies, expressing the yearning for peace in Trinh Cong Son's music.

Singers Kyo York and Ha Le presented the familiar song "Let the Wind Carry It Away" to the audience.

The song "Hue - Saigon - Hanoi " is performed by singers Ha Le, Tan Son, and Viet Thu.

In Chapter 2: "Returning to Ha Tinh," Trinh Cong Son's music seems to carry the essence of a spiritual inheritance from his predecessor – the great poet Nguyen Du. From the poetry of Nguyen Tien Dien about the human condition, that humanistic source seems to have found a moving continuation in Trinh Cong Son's music. The songs touch the audience's emotions with notes that share the pain, empathy, and aspirations of humanity.
