The immortal melodies of Secret Garden are coming to Vietnam

Good Morning Vietnam announced this year's guest is Secret Garden.

There are songs like bright dust particles lying still on the finger of time and just need a light breeze to make the sparkling rays shine again. Secret Garden is like a bright dust particle that has anchored in the memories of many generations of listeners in Vietnam since the late 1990s, when portable CDs and cassette tapes were still on the wooden shelves of coffee shops, until the current era of online music with just a light swipe on the phone keypad.

The first appearance of Secret Garden on the Vietnamese stage within the framework of the international music project for the community “Good Morning Vietnam” has thus become a meaningful milestone for the public who love concerts and symphonies. This can be considered a moment for the youth of the past and present to look into the same aesthetic mirror.

When “Good Morning Vietnam” announced this year’s guest as Secret Garden, the goal seemed to go beyond a “historical performance”, and instead aim to establish a sustainable aesthetic infrastructure for the public who love concerts and symphonies.

The first time Secret Garden appeared directly in front of Vietnamese audiences marked the maturity of a community of chamber music and orchestra listeners, large enough and strong enough to demand high standards. From this milestone, the organizers have the basis to invite other sophisticated instrumental music projects. The milestone sometimes lies not in anything too lofty or grand, but in small but long-term changes such as adding more listeners to “Nocturne” every morning, making a cup of coffee and letting the sunlight slide across the table like slender hands gliding over the piano keys.

With Secret Garden, wordless stories are told in broad daylight, and secrets need not be spoken, because the melody will speak for them. In the space of "Good Morning Vietnam", people who have crossed each other's lives through music from three decades ago to the present will have the opportunity to recognize each other. When the music begins, the violin raises its bow, the piano touches the first key, and time in the auditorium will slow down to the length of a common breath.

If we had to name that moment, we could call it “Dawn in the garden of dreams”. At that dawn, Good Morning Vietnam with Secret Garden was not just an event, but a spiritual infrastructure being built: gently embracing old memories, while opening a new horizon for audiences who love concerts and symphonies in Vietnam.

“Secret Garden Live in Vietnam” will take place at 7:30 p.m. on October 18, 2025 at the National Convention Center, Hanoi . This is an event within the annual international music project for the community “Good Morning Vietnam” initiated by Nhan Dan Newspaper and IB Group Vietnam.
