Meritorious Artist Hoang Tung touches deep emotions when singing about "old parents"

"My Old Parents" not only honors the boundless merit of parents for their children, but also contains memories of childhood, the worries, hard work, and sacrifices of parents for their children. Even in old age, parents still do not stop worrying about their children, always giving them love, hoping that their children will have the simplest things: peace, health, and happiness.

"My Old Parents" is a work that brings together musician Nguyen Thanh Trung's emotions about father, mother, and family love, and then puts his heart and soul into composing and sending it to Hoang Tung's voice to bring to music lovers on this occasion.

"My Old Parents" was arranged by musician Duong Duc Thuy in a lyrical folk style, using the soft, passionate sound of the monochord as the main theme, giving the work both elegance and the soul of traditional Vietnamese culture, while promoting the warm, lyrical and charming baritone voice of Meritorious Artist Hoang Tung to convey a message to the listeners.

Meritorious Artist Hoang Tung shared: "If before there were songs about father and mother, then in this song by the musician there are both father and mother. This is truly a precious thing, because in reality in the repertoire of Vietnamese songs there are not many works that sing about both father and mother. When receiving Nguyen Thanh Trung's work, I was moved and respected because the musician wrote very emotional lyrics, and those emotions all come from the perception of things and phenomena to form the song. Therefore, it brings the singer vibrations, bursting into singing very naturally".

"My parents are old" was written by musician Nguyen Thanh Trung from the feeling of looking up at the wall of his parents' house with the image of their smiles in the wedding photo, along with many other pictures of family members, cherished by his parents as proof of the attachment, pride, and happiness that his parents share with anyone who comes to visit their home.

"I really like and am moved by the ending line of the song "Everyone has a mother and a father". The ending line rings out loudly, resounding like a reminder that everyone has a mother and a father. Parents always love and care for their children, sacrificing everything for their children. Even in today's busy and troubled life, parents, no matter how old they are, always remember their children, love them, and care for them without expecting anything in return.

However, somewhere because of being busy, because of distance, because of the pursuit of happiness, career success, sometimes children neglect their elderly parents. So when singing such lyrics, I sympathize with the musician's feelings, because we have empathy, enough experience, maturity to feel the simple things about family love, about parents", Meritorious Artist Hoang Tung confided.

"Every time I sing Nguyen Thanh Trung's song about my parents, I send it to my parents to listen to, they really like it. The song by the musician, my voice is like our gratitude and encouragement to our parents. Perhaps this song will be more special because it includes both my father and mother, like my encouragement and love to my parents who are living in my hometown of Quang Ninh - which is currently suffering heavy damage from storm No. 3. Fortunately, my parents' house is fine, my grandparents are still healthy.

During the stormy days, I was very worried about my parents in Hanoi , but every time I called them, they reassured me to work with peace of mind, take care of my health and take care of my family, that they were both healthy and safe. Even though my parents are old, they are always worried, sacrificing and do not want their children to be bothered by them!", Meritorious Artist Hoang Tung shared.
