Another song by Vietnamese songwriter Trịnh Công Sơn that I re-orchestrated with his blessing.
Made famous by Trịnh Công Sơn's muse Khanh Ly (arguably the best Vietnamese female singer) this song was one of the few that mother would often play at home, during the Vietnam war.
It was later used by Trân Anh Hùng in his film 'Cyclo' and that was when I decided to have a go at it and do my own version. The simplicity of the folk guitar may have given way to a more complex orchestration complete with cello,  minimalist piano loop, industrial sounds and Isabelle Thomas' soprano voice which appears during the 3 minute long prelude, but Trịnh Công Sơn's beautiful melodic line and haunting lyrics still retain their poignancy.

Ta thấy em

A song which I wrote back in 1998, when I was in my tango phase. Years later I asked Portuguese songstress Bévinda to write lyrics on it - which she did beautifully. The song will appear in the collaborative project entitled 'Fukaeri'. 
Here is a violin, cello & piano version. Back to the root of the music...

O verão (Trio Version)

This is a part of the 48-Hour Short Film Project.
I quickly made this track to use as the soundtrack of our team's film "An va Diep"
