He warmly welcomed her, then suddenly picked up his familiar zither to accompany her performance of the song "Da Co Hoai Lang" by the late musician Cao Van Lau. In the cozy space, the sound of the zither blended with her voice, she felt like she had returned to the origin of Cai Luong - the place where they both spent their whole lives loving and cherishing.
"Those were moments that I can never forget. Teacher Khe played the guitar, I sang, as if there was an invisible thread connecting us and the whole history of reformed opera and traditional music" - she emotionally shared.
Ngoc Giau always remembers the advice of a master
Not only stopping at musical memories, what People's Artist Ngoc Giau remembers most are the heartfelt advice of the late Professor Tran Van Khe.
He once told her to maintain her devotion to the traditional theater career, to live, perform and contribute with all her heart. When he learned that later, due to circumstances and health, she rarely participated in the reformed theater stage and switched to comedy, television and cinema.

"He told me that an artist must set an example for the younger generation, must leave behind a flame of enthusiasm for them to continue on the path of national art. Sometimes I have to return to reformed opera. Comedy is just my weakness, and I always remind myself of that every time I step on stage or when I pass on my profession to the younger generation" - People's Artist Ngoc Giau confided.
Ngoc Giau's efforts are a shining example for the next generation of artists.
The image of the late Professor Tran Van Khe, with his profound knowledge and endless love for traditional music, has become a spiritual support for many generations of artists.
For People's Artist Ngoc Giau, he is not only a researcher and educator , but also a companion, making each song and each instrument more profound. "To this day, every time I sing "Da Co Hoai Lang", I feel like he is still sitting there, next to the Dan Kim, smiling and listening" - she choked up.
People's Artist Ngoc Giau's tribute to the late Professor Tran Van Khe is an artist's nostalgia for a teacher, a testament to the enduring vitality of traditional art.
