Da Lat hosts music composition camp for 2026 Flower Festival

The Lam Dong Province People's Committee, in collaboration with the Vietnam Musicians Association, has launched the first music composition camp for the 11th Da Lat Flower Festival, scheduled for 2026. Held under the theme “Da Lat – A Harmony of Flowers and Music,” the event aims to leverage the city’s status as a UNESCO Creative City of Music to produce works that reflect the local landscape, culture, and people.

Dinh Van Tuan, Vice Chairman of the Lam Dong Province People's Committee, emphasized that the camp serves to connect artists and use musical creativity to promote local tourism and cultural heritage. The camp, which runs until October 16, features several prominent musicians, including Nguyen Duc Trinh, Chairman of the Vietnam Musicians Association, as well as artists such as Le Minh Son, Y Phon Ksor, and Giang Son.

Nguyen Duc Trinh expressed that the natural beauty and cultural depth of the region serve as significant inspiration for the participating composers, with the goal of creating works that resonate deeply with the public and act as cultural ambassadors for the province.
