Music in HCM City for late Tran Lap
 |
Rockers Pham Anh Khoa, Hai Bot, and the bands Micorway, Black Infinity, Oringchains and Acoustic Band will perform popular songs composed and performed by Lap and his bands.
The event will also feature young singers such as Bao Anh, Kim Loan and Ha Van Dong, who participated in the Voice of Vietnam, a version of the American singing contest The Voice, under the lead of Lap, one of the show’s coaches.
Half of the proceeds will be sent to Lap’s wife and children.
Born in 1974 in Hanoi, Lap graduated from the Hanoi College of Arts in 1997 before studying economics at Hanoi National University.
He and his friends established Buc Tuong in 1995 to impart their love of hard rock to young audiences.
As the band’s leader, Lap composed more than 30 songs, most of which feature themes about country, love and friendship.
His band was awarded the Best Hard Rock Band Prize at the Vietnamese Rock Festival in 2004.
He worked as music director and editor for several music programmes produced by leading television stations.
He died on March 17 in Hanoi after a four-month battle with cancer.
The concert will begin at 8pm tomorrow (March 25) at the Acoustic Bar at Ngo Thoi Nhiem Street in District 3.
