Che Linh first time doing a show about his compositions

The famous singer used the pen name Tu Nhi when writing famous bolero works such as "Mai ư mình xa nhau" (If we are apart tomorrow) and "Nử chung mình cách rồi" (If we are apart).

Having organized music nights in Hanoi many times, this time, Che Linh only wants to do a show to honor his own compositions on June 23 and 24 at the Hanoi Friendship Cultural Palace. He shared that Hanoi audiences always love him because every show is very crowded, even with no empty seats. "In the upcoming show, I will be able to do something that I have dreamed of in my life, which is to sing my own compositions. What could be happier than Che Linh honoring Tu Nhi's music?", he said.

Che Linh held his first live show to honor his own compositions.

Until now, not all fans know that in his role as a composer, Che Linh uses the pen name Tu Nhi, which means a small child. "Tu" means handsome, "Nhi" means childish. "I just think simply, I am already a singer so when writing music, I have to use a different name. Tu Nhi specializes in writing songs for Che Linh to sing and vice versa, Che Linh only sings Tu Nhi's songs, that idea will be strange and... better" - he explained.

Tu Nhi's collection of compositions is as famous as Che Linh's. Songs like Mai lo minh xa nhau, Neu chung minh cach tro, Dem buon tinh le, Doan buon dem mua, Xin lam nguoi xa la... have all become familiar to those who love bolero music. Besides Che Linh, many generations of singers have performed these works, but the famous singer is still not satisfied because of the incorrect vibrato and emphasis. Most of Tu Nhi's compositions come from his own feelings for women. Some songs are his emotions, some are inspired by stories of acquaintances. He wrote quite a lot, just the recorded songs alone amount to 60-70 songs.

MC Ky Duyen will host two shows of her "senior".

Commenting on the way singers sing his songs, Che Linh said: “Each person has their own way of singing. They sing with emotion, their expressions are also very good, but whether or not it is true to the song is not necessarily true. There are places where instead of prolonging, they do not prolong, instead of dropping a small amount, they do not drop a small amount, so it is not completely true to the spirit of the song that I wrote”. He also analyzed that in the song Mai lo minh xa nhau, the word 'Mai' does not refer to time but is the name of the girl he once loved. While most singers sing 'Mai lo/minh xa nhau', Che Linh sings 'Mai/lợ minh xa nhau'.

In the upcoming two live shows, Che Linh promises to tell “all the secrets” behind each of his songs. He has invited close artists to participate in the program such as Pham Duc Thanh, MC Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen, Son Tuyen, Le Trinh, Ha Van.
