Ha Myo and the way to make ancient Xam "revive" as naturally as breathing

Singing Xam to flatter her husband, singing Xam with students to "float" and incorporating current and modern issues into Xam are some of the ways that singer Ha Myo chooses to immerse herself in the folk art and culture of her ancestors.

The profession of singing Xam to beg for money has long ceased to exist. But Xam - an art form that has condensed the life and cultural material of the Vietnamese people in the Northern Delta for thousands of years - still has a strong vitality.

Singer Ha Myo, with her Tiktok videos of singing Xam with millions of views, has naturally brought Xam into life, such as instructing passersby to sing Xam, singing Xam instead of words in a humorous and witty way like "Xam flattering her husband," Xam improvisation... How did Ha Myo transform Xam into such an inspiring musical material?
