Impressions of Tay Ninh at the Exhibition of 80 Years of National Achievements

On September 2, 1945, at Ba Dinh Square, President Ho Chi Minh read the Declaration of Independence, giving birth to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. During the 80-year journey of construction and development, Vietnam has taken steady steps on the path of independence, autonomy and integration. Together with the whole country, Tay Ninh has continued to write its own history, clearly demonstrated at the exhibition "80 Years of Journey of Independence - Freedom - Happiness".

Reaching out to integrate - Preserving identity

Many people and tourists enjoy the art of amateur music performed by artists from Tay Ninh province.

At the exhibition, Tay Ninh introduced to visitors Don ca tai tu - Representative intangible cultural heritage of humanity recognized by UNESCO since 2013. Don ca tai tu is not simply music but an indispensable part of the spiritual life of the people of the South.

The special thing that makes Don Ca Tai Tu always attract a large number of listeners is the simplicity and sincerity in each verse and sound of the instrument. It is this closeness that has made this genre live forever in the hearts of many generations.

The artisans from Tay Ninh recreated the Southern countryside with bamboo chairs, thatched houses and golden rice fields. When the smooth, lyrical melodies and traditional instruments were played, all created a familiar and peaceful folk art space.

People interact with Tay Ninh province art team

Mr. Nguyen Thanh Nhan - Provincial Culture and Arts Center, said: "Tay Ninh troupe brought amateur songs, modern and traditional songs about Tay Ninh as well as excerpts from the legendary Cai Luong of Ba Den Mountain to the exhibition and were loved and welcomed by the people. The troupe members are very happy to bring Tay Ninh's identity here to serve the people. If we are lucky enough to have the opportunity, we will definitely bring our songs and voices to serve everyone."

In addition to performances, Tay Ninh's exhibition booth also displays musical instruments and invites the audience to come on stage to "try their hand" at vọng cổ songs,... Through this, visitors can not only enjoy music but also interact with artists, learn about how to use musical instruments, singing styles, and how to pass this art down through generations.

“Today, I am very happy to see the Tay Ninh art troupe perform. This is the first time we have had the opportunity to enjoy it directly. Thank you to the artists and singers for performing great songs for us to enjoy” - Mr. Nguyen Hoc Hung (residing in Ngoc Hoi commune, Hanoi) happily said.

Don ca tai tu can be said to be a part of the soul of the folk culture of Tay Ninh people in particular and the South in general. Bringing this art form closer to the public in Hanoi shows the continuous efforts in preserving and promoting the value of heritage, contributing to connecting regions, helping the younger generation understand and love the values ​​of national culture more.

In addition to introducing traditional values, Tay Ninh also brought to the exhibition a modern, dynamic appearance, full of aspirations to rise. Projects such as the Ho Chi Minh City - Moc Bai Expressway, the Dau Tieng Lakeside Road, and Phuoc Dong Industrial Park were displayed in the form of models and 3D films, showing the province's systematic and synchronous development orientation in the near future.

Tay Ninh - a land of sunshine and wind, where tradition and modernity intersect, at the Exhibition of 80 years of the Journey of Independence - Freedom - Happiness of the Fatherland, told the whole country a very unique story. The story of a border province full of hardships but bravely transforming itself day by day, together with the country entering a new era - the era of national growth./.
