Ha Anh Tuan - Sketch a Rose

Ha Anh Tuan is one of the top artists in Vietnam whose music career has spanned over 18 years. He is widely known for his live performance brand - Ha Anh Tuan live concert, where 7 live music projects have been held in special locations in Vietnam, attracting hundreds of thousands of audiences since 2016.

Ha Anh Tuan live concert Sketch a Rose is the first time Ha Anh Tuan has ever brought his concerts outside of Vietnam. After 2 sold-out shows in Esplanade Concert Hall, Singapore, Sketch a Rose makes its second stop at the Sydney Opera House, continuing the journey of bringing Vietnamese music to the world's iconic theaters.

The theme of the concert is inspired by the famous script Tin O Hoa Hong (Believe In The Roses) written by the late Vietnamese author Luu Quang Vu in 1982, which was adapted into a play in 1986. The story revolves around young graduates who are filled with dreams and beliefs in a better society. Despite having to face many challenges, their faith remained intact, though shattered many times, like the belief that after the storm, roses will still bloom.

Sketch a Rose begins with "the fool", who has a colorless rose in his hand, and a desire for freedom. Embarking on a new journey despite knowing it is full of obstacles, he finds "the lovers", his love and passion in life. One day, "the fool" takes a step back, like "the hermit" - one who is solitary to delve deep into his inner world, only to be reborn from the wounds, with an open heart, like "the star" sparkling in rejoice.

After traveling around "the world", experiencing all the ups and downs, "the fool" returns, becoming a new version of himself, while "the rose" in his heart blossoms, as something beautiful is blooming. "We all have every right to sketch our rose, our love and belief in the good beautiful things in our own ways." - Ha Anh Tuan.
