       Đờn ca tài tử is genre of instrumental and vocal
traditional music which arose in South Vietnam at the end of the 19th century
from a combination of the ritual music nhạc lễ of southern Vietnam
and the chamber music nhạc huế of central Vietnam. Its name means
litterally "music and song of the amateurs" and shows that it is a musical
entertainment for scholars and music lovers at all levels of society.The
đờn ca tài tử is performed by a small instrumental group which
includes a đờn kìm moon-shaped lute, a đờn tranh 16-string
zither, a đờn cò 2-string fiddle and a western guitar adapted to
vietnamese music and called ghi ta phím lõm. Other instruments can be
played, such as the đờn bầu monochord, other lutes and flutes.In
the late 1930s, most of southern tài tử performers agreed on a
repertoire of twenty basic pieces, all instrumental. These pieces are considered
to be the essence of tài tử music and they constitute the reference
repertoire. But after lyrics were adapted to instrumental melodies, the
đờn ca tài tử has also become a vocal music which served as a
root of the southern reformed opera cải lương. The texts are
adaptations of folk tales, stories of daily life, love stories, songs of
nostalgia for the homeland or old Sino-Vietnamese poems. Among the various forms
of traditional music that are practiced today in Vietnam, the đờn ca
tài tử is the one which withstands the best the daily on-slaught of
American, British and Korean pop music, with almost 30,000 practitioners in
Southern provinces.This album showcases a panorama of the reference repertoire
as well as other vocal and instrumental pieces performed in solo, in duet or in
chamber ensemble by five best groups in South Vietnam.
