Through original folk melodies, adapted melodies, and newly composed melodies; and through diverse forms of expression: performance, courtship singing, singing and dancing, combining folk elements with developments in music and dance, a new and captivating appeal has been created, yet deeply imbued with the cultural heritage of Nghe Tinh folk singing.

The program consists of two parts: Part 1, titled "A Picture of the Countryside," has the main theme: Each of us has a place called home, a place deeply etched in our hearts. In the hustle and bustle of life, simply remembering the sunrise in that countryside brings a sense of peace and warmth to the heart.
Nghe An province is not only beautiful with its lush green mountains and clear blue waters, and its hardworking and resilient people, but it also preserves long-standing customs and traditions, creating a unique cultural identity that cannot be confused with many other regions.

Part 2, titled "Vi and Giam Folk Songs Soar Far," conveys the following message: Through many historical and life-changing events, the Kinh people migrated to the mountains to clear land, establish settlements, and live interspersed with ethnic minority groups. Many Vi and Giam folk song clubs were established, and the Mong, Thai, Tho, Kho Mu, and O Du people all knew how to sing Vi and Giam folk songs.
Many songs performed in Part 2 successfully conveyed the message that folk songs and traditional melodies have spread far and wide, remaining in the work and daily lives of people across the country.
The dress rehearsal, featuring many outstanding performances that clearly showcased the spirit of Nghe An's folk songs and dances, delighted the audience and received positive feedback from the art council.
