Fragments of History: Loc Vang, the Yellow music singer from Hanoi | ArtsEquator Thinking and Talking about Arts and Culture in Southeast Asia ArtsEquator Viewpoints Nguyen Dinh Toan August 3, 2021 By Duong Nguyen Thuy (800 words, 3-minute read) It was perhaps the melancholy of history that was the most palpable presence in the livestream action Fragments of History , which I organised as part of Mekong Cultural Hub’s Mini-Meeting Point held on 17 July 2021. Though it took place in under 30 minutes, the event brought me and the audience onsite and on Facebook Live from present to past and back again. The story was drawn from deeply autobiographical wells of Nguyen Van Loc, a 76-year-old Yellow music singer living in Hanoi.
