Taking the main image of roses, most of the music night focused on new compositions with romantic colors by many authors loved by young audiences, such as Vu ( We greet each other ), Tran Duy Khang ( Eden, From the ashes ), Vu Cat Tuong ( You ), Hoang Dung ( Ven Nguyen )... Besides, the appearance of guest Quang Hung MasterD also created more attraction. Through the arrangements of Nguyen Huu Vuong, these songs have become more fresh and luxurious.
Understanding that the audience needs time to "absorb" relatively new songs, Ha Anh Tuan subtly interweaves with old moments. With the appearance of singer Lam Truong and one-time hits such as Tinh thoi thot xa, Mua phi truong, Katy Katy ..., Ha Anh Tuan reminisces about the time of Lan song xanh, from which his love for music blossomed. On stage, he recalls the memory of the time he boldly went to a tea room to sing Tien ban bang duong with his seniors and confided that he did not understand why Vietnamese music in the 1990s and 2000s was always excellent, just by singing, he already found it good. Therefore, the audience coming to Sketch a Rose feels like they are on a time train with many memories.
Ha Anh Tuan invited Yiruma to perform Which Month Do You Miss Me? and Dear, Memory - a song dedicated to him.
The appearance of the famous pianist Yiruma left an unforgettable impression. The special guest from Korea performed 4 compositions, including River Flows in You and Kiss the Rain , which were loved by many Vietnamese audiences, bringing back many memories along with the sound of the instrument. With Sketch a Rose, Kiss the Rain had Vietnamese lyrics and more, the two also combined in a song composed specifically for Ha Anh Tuan: Dear, Memory. This appearance and harmony showed the ambition of bringing the world to Vietnam of the singer Xuan Thi .
It can be said that Sketch a Rose not only has love songs, but also has thorns and challenges on the rose path that everyone will experience with thorns that make them bleed. But at the end of the horizon is always beauty, a dream that has come true in the message "believe in roses". It can be said that the "brand" Ha Anh Tuan not only has a captivating musical story but also a stream of nostalgia and confidence in the coming days with the baggage of faith and kindness.
Notably, at the end of the second night of the show, Ha Anh Tuan sent the audience good news when he announced: "The final destination of Sketch a Rose will be Dolby Theatre, Hollywood, USA in October 2025".
"You nurture Ha Anh Tuan's music, and Tuan thinks our music will nurture the less fortunate," Ha Anh Tuan shared. During the concert, he announced that he would donate 4 billion VND from the Sketch a Rose concert revenue in Ho Chi Minh City to Choi Viet Nam - a program that is accompanying Thanh Nien Newspaper's Cung con di tiep cuoc doi (Carrying on with children) to join hands to nurture young buds that have lost loved ones due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
