Quang Tri boy writes song about Nghe An, causing a stir in the online community

(Baonghean.vn) - Although not a native of Nghe An, Cap Anh Tai - a young man from Quang Tri, "knew by heart" the lands and places in Nghe An when composing the touching song "Around Nghe An".

In recent days, Nghe An netizens have been sharing the song “Vong vong xu Nghe” (Around Nghe An) composed and performed by a young man from Quang Tri.

With a gentle and emotional voice, Cap Anh Tai skillfully conveyed his intention when "drawing" an arc introducing the famous landscapes of Nghe An. From Ben Thuy bridge, down to Cua Lo beach, then to Dien Chau, up to the mountains of Quy Chau, Que Phong, then around to the westernmost district of Ky Son or visiting the Pu Mat nature reserve in Con Cuong and Anh Son and around to Nam Dan.

Asked about the opportunity to compose the song, Cap Anh Tai expressed: “If we just say “fate” it is not enough, but the heavy meaning, affection, filled with love always lies in my heart. Nghe An, the place that gave me so many memories, now that I am far away, I still have many lingering feelings.”

Tai said that he had a connection with Nghe An since the first time he performed in Vinh City. That time, Tai performed the song "Trua vang" by musician Huy Tuan. After that exchange, the connection with friends from Nghe An became deeper and deeper. Every time he visited Nghe An, the young people gave Tai unforgettable impressions and feelings about the people and land here. And his feelings for Nghe An just kept growing. The last time Tai visited Nghe An was in 2013.

Nghe An in the mind of the young man from Quang Tri Citadel is the quiet afternoons watching the sunset over the blue waves of Cua Lo; the nights sitting on the other side of Ben Thuy Bridge looking at the sparkling Vinh City; the singing sessions with Vinh University students. Or the winter mornings running to Dien Bich (Dien Chau) or the afternoons turning to Nam Kim (Nam Dan) to leisurely enjoy the local specialties. Tai is like a native of Nghe An, very loving and affectionate.

Since moving to Ho Chi Minh City, the Quang Tri boy has had few opportunities to return but still tells himself he will write a song about Nghe An as a gift for his memories and most of all, to give to his friends and loved ones in Nghe An.

And then, Tai had the opportunity to realize what he cherished. At that time, businessman Trinh Xuan Muoi (from Dien Chau - Nghe An, currently living in Buon Me Thuot) asked Tai to compose a song about Nghe An with famous tourist attractions. So Tai agreed and started writing right away.

Because he had many memories with the land and people of Nghe An, the Quang Tri boy knew by heart the names of the districts and famous places there. However, Tai still had to find more documents to have more information to include in the article.

Finally, nearly a year ago, the song "Around Nghe An" was completed by Tai.

As the author shared: The main idea of ​​the song is to go on a tour, so it only focuses on famous tourist destinations. Many people's demand to include all the names of districts is wrong because this is not a report on how many districts Nghe An has.

As soon as the song “Vong vong xu Nghe” was posted, it had hundreds of thousands of views and expressed admiration from the Facebook community. After watching, a native of Nghe shared: “Listening to the song, Cap Anh Tai seems to know the lands and places of Nghe An by heart. If he didn’t have a deep, intimate affection, he could have written such poignant and affectionate lyrics. Thank you!”

The 8x guy from Quang Tri hopes that one day in the near future he will be able to return to Nghe An and sing for the people there with the most loving feelings.
