From l’Institut français de Ho Chi Minh Ville:

As an internationally acclaimed Jazz guitarist and a recipient of the Django Reinhardt Prize, Nguyen Le breathes new life into the common definition of “fusion” by combining jazz with world music. On his Vietnam tour this time, he will present his new album “Hanoi Duo” with another exceptional musician – Ngo Hong Quang, an album that is inspired by Vietnamese contemporary music: colorful with multiple styles, upbeat, sensitive and very intelligent.

The duo also performs in Hanoi on 24-25 February.

Ngo Hong Quang: singing, đàn Môi (Vietnamese jaw harp), đàn Tính (gourd lute), đàn Bầu (monochord zither), đàn Nhị & đàn Cò (two-string fiddle), K’ny (Vietnamese mouth violin), đàn Goong (gong)
