HÀ NỘI — The experimental music centre Phù Sa Lab continues to present their successful performance Bamboo Talk this month.
The bamboo tree is a significant symbol in both Vietnamese culture and daily life. It exists almost everywhere in the country, though mainly in rural areas. The solid, straight and high bamboo trees represent the resilience, indomitability, and bravery of the Vietnamese people.
The bamboo tree often grows in clusters, with a strong vitality, and represents the solidarity of the Vietnamese people as well as their diligence and loyalty to their homeland.

Bamboo clusters are also popularly known as the emblem of Việt Nam’s rural areas, together with banyan trees, paddy fields and the village ponds. These symbols always recall a peaceful, rustic village in the mind of Vietnamese, wherever they are.
In preserving this beautiful culture, the creative performance Bamboo Talk, which uses music instruments made of bamboo, is a journey imagined by the artists and dedicated to the audience.
Bamboo Talk will be presented from 7pm on May 11, 13, 19, 20, 24, and 25. Tickets cost VNĐ700,000 (including dinner and one drink). Contact Jolie Linh Nguyễn at 0961 088844. Phù Sa Lab is at 21/52 Tô Ngọc Vân Street, Tây Hồ District. — VNS
