Description:
The apocalyptic image of Vietnam in the movies is a far cry from the reality of later-day Vietnam - a dynamic country with an ancient and vibrant culture combining Eastern, and in recent years, Western influences. Featuring some of the biggest stars of contemporary Vietnamese music, key regional styles, popular folk songs and ancient court music, The Rough Guide To The Music Of Vietnam offers a unique insight into one of the world's least understood nations.
