World Music Discoveries Vietnam - The Art of Attraction DVD

In the mountainous northern areas of Vietnam, the Hmong are a living illustration of the level of refinement that can be attained in the cultivation of beauty and the art of attraction in a society with a traditional way of life.

Their aim is to charm - the living, the spirits, and their ancestors.

Their music is very important culturally and ethnographically, as the Hmong are some of the more ignored peoples hailing from Asia. The sounds are simple and dissonant, yet utterly beautiful.

"This music is rather upbeat...[with terrific] demonstration of various native instruments. Overall, the music is well performed, and has its own aspects of enjoyability without a doubt." - All Music Guide
