The Legend of the Drum Festival
Aug 10, 2025
In the ancient village of Đông Sơn, nestled in the mountains of northern Vietnam where bronze-making had been perfected over countless generations, there lived a master craftsman named Trống whose skill in creating ceremonial drums was unmatched throughout the kingdom. His drums were not merely instruments—they were works of art that seemed to capture the very heartbeat of the earth itself.
Trống lived with his daughter Nhạc, whose name meant “music,” and who possessed an extraordinary gift for understanding the language of drums. When she played, people said the drums spoke to their souls, conveying emotions and stories that words could never express.
