Traditional music "passed down from father to son" stirs up "All-Rounder"
All tickets for the first night were sold out in 12 minutes, demonstrating Soobin's special appeal and the high expectations from fans. "All-Rounder" is both the name of the concert and the message that Soobin and SpaceSpeakers Label want to convey throughout: an all-round artist - someone who constantly expands his creative range and affirms his personal mark in the competitive music market.
With the ability to flexibly adapt to many music genres - from R&B, pop, ballad to hip hop, folk, Soobin has brought a multi-faceted artistic journey, clearly expressing his personal color in each performance, constantly changing in musical materials and stage emotions.
Not only does he sing live 100% with the band and orchestra, giving his all in vibrant performances that stir up the audience, Soobin also plays a series of musical instruments himself: piano, keyboard and even the monochord - a traditional instrument deeply associated with his artistic journey.
In particular, the Xam performance “Muc Ha Vo Nhan”, combined with the male artist’s father - People’s Artist Huynh Tu and rapper Binz, is a living proof of Soobin’s versatility and breakthrough artistic thinking. For the first time, this ancient Xam tune has been renewed to perform on a large-scale modern concert stage - something that not every artist dares to do.
Xam is a traditional music genre with strong narrative nuances, often performed on the old streets, highly folk and requiring depth in cultural perception. Bringing Xam into a public space like a concert, combined with modern music, is a bold decision but executed convincingly.
Behind this unique performance is Soobin's deep understanding of folk music - an artist who grew up in a traditional artistic family, inspired by his father, a folk artist - People's Artist Huynh Tu. That helps Soobin preserve the original spirit of the Xam melody, while Music Director SlimV plays an important role in transforming the work to fit the overall structure of the program. This smooth combination of tradition and modernity has opened up a new and closer approach to folk music for the general audience - especially the younger generation.
With a strong crew such as Stage Director Dinh Ha Uyen Thu, Music Director SlimV... "All-Rounder" brings a concert experience that is methodical, according to international standards and rich in professional quality. Full LED stage, modern lighting system, smoke and fire effects, mobile stages... bring a complete visual and auditory experience to more than 16,000 audiences in two nights of performance. The organization of entrance, seating, sound and lighting, and security are all strictly controlled.
