Tree of Dreams - Huong Thanh (Vietnam)

Vietnamese singer Huong Thanh is best known for her work with guitarist and compatriot Nguyên Lê, combining traditional Vietnamese songs with jazz elements and other world styles. But the Paris-based singer’s 2011 album, Tree of Dreams, focuses solely on traditional music. The album explores three types of Vietnamese folk song – lullabies, love songs and work songs – in the different musical styles of the northern, central and southern parts of the country (Buda Music 784138)
