During the entire exhibition, the album “Đường Xa Vạn Dặm” (The Road To Infinity) by the well-known musician/songwriter Quốc Trung has been played to create a unique ambiance as well as bring to our audience a more fulfilling experience.

Lauched as a project by musician Quốc Trung and the Phương Đông band, the album is the first of its kind mixing the Western electronic music with the material from the traditional folk music of Vietnam, such as chèo, xẩm, quan họ, hò Huế, ca trù, etc. The first concert was taken place in Tokyo with the presence of the Japanese prince and princess. Later, Mr. Quốc Trung and the band brought the concert to Vietnam, which made it the very first performance program of world music in the country.

We wholeheartedly believe “The Road To Infinity” is one of its kind and that we couldn’t have found a better album to play in our exhibition. As you might already see, “Present From The Past” is not an exhibition which displays antiques. When we started to plan this event, the aspiration is to present to our audience the way the Vietnamese current artists perceive and channel our cultural roots. There are numerous musical works which took their inspiration from Vietnamese traditional melodies, but “The Road To Infinity” is undoubtedly one of the most novel, high-quality and suitable for an exhibition space.
