The monthly cai luong performance called Vang Trang Co Nhac, usually held on a full-moon day by Ho Chi Minh City Television will be organized in the Mekong Delta Province of Bac Lieu for the first time on May 26.
The cai luong (traditional southern amateur music) devotees in the Mekong Delta region will have a chance to enjoy lyrical cai luong songs and extracts of famous plays during the show.
Well-known cai luong actors and actresses including Bao Quoc, Trong Huu, Phuong Loan, Phuong Hang, Trong Phuc, Bui Trung Dang, Thu Van and Ngoc Doi will join the performance.
Bac Lieu is the birthplace of "Da Co Hoai Lang", an immortal cai luong piece written by musician Cao Van Lau in 1919, which tells the story of a wife waiting for her husband to return from the battlefield.
