The "Son of Hue" live show will take place at the Bia Quoc Hoc stage in Hue City on the evening of August 3rd.
Long Nhật explained the reason for choosing the venue to Tuổi Trẻ Online : "The National School Monument Square opposite Hue National School (now Hue National High School for the Gifted) is a place associated with my youth."
Few people know that it was on this very stage, decades ago, that I first sang, "paving the way" for my singing journey to this day.
Long Nhật sings cải lương (Vietnamese traditional opera) in the Huế dialect.
Singer Long Nhat shared with Tuoi Tre Online that the live show taking place in Hue should take the poetry of the capital as the main color, creating a connection throughout the music night.
From song selection and costumes to staging ideas, Long Nhật handled everything himself. He wanted to bring the most exciting experience to the audience.
The concert featured artists Thu Hien, Van Khanh, Ngoc Doi, singer Ngoc Anh, and MC La Thoai Phi…

"Beyond providing an emotionally charged musical experience, the live show brings together hundreds of models, dancers, and actors participating in the performances."
"In particular, the ao dai (traditional Vietnamese dress) performance, which recreates the distinctive cultural and historical features of dreamy Hue, is the main message of this live show," Long Nhat said.
Regarding the stage, Long Nhật invested in modern sound and lighting systems combined with laser technology.
The highlight was a performance using drones to recreate the distinctive cultural features of Hue, as well as images associated with the male singer's career.
The songs selected for the program were arranged seamlessly in line with the theme of the live show. Long Nhat collaborated with artist Thu Hien through the song Cau ho ben bo Hien Luong . He duetted with Ngoc Anh through the medley La xanh - Anh Ba Hung...
For the first time, Hue audiences will hear Long Nhat sing Cai Luong (traditional Vietnamese opera) in the Hue dialect alongside artist Ngoc Doi ( winner of the 2007 Golden Bell Award for Cai Luong ) in the performance "Central Vietnamese Men, Western Vietnamese Women" .
In this live show, Long Nhật introduced two new songs to the audience: "A Folk Song, a Quan Họ Verse " (composed by Duy Thái) and "Coming to Hue, the Lily of the Valley Flies" (by Nhụy Nguyên).

It's safe to say that "The Son of Hue" is Long Nhat's biggest investment to date in his live show.
He organized a free live show for the audience to express his gratitude for their support over the past 35 years.
"Having worked in this profession for so long, I have enough financial resources to organize my own concert. Audiences have always paid to hear me sing. Now it's time for me to treat them to a concert in return," Long Nhật shared.
Among the guest singers, artist Thu Hien is particularly special to Long Nhat because she is a "living witness" who has followed his journey into the profession, his growth, and his transformation into a professional singer.
He wanted to use the stage to celebrate his 35th anniversary in singing, to reminisce and pay tribute to artist Thu Hien.
Long Nhật revealed that after his concert in Hue, he will be holding two more concerts in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi .
