Interview with Quynh Nhu, Coco, Do Quyen

Do Quyen — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 21:20:51 +0000

The Le Van Khoa Performance on Saturday, October 11, 2008 ended around 11:30 pm. Wanting to stay in each other’s company, some of us decided to go get a bite to eat. The only restaurant that seemed to be open that hour was Thanh My. On our way in we saw … LE VAN KHOA!! He was getting a late night snack with Kateryna Myronjuk and Irina Starodub, two of the non-Vietnamese performers. Inside, we also said hello to Ngoc Ha.

The wait was quite lengthy and with the group of 6, it was hard to seat us quicky. So to keep us entertained, we interviewed Quynh Nhu, Coco, and Do Quyen about their singing adventures the night before.

A Carpenter Center Photo Shoot

As we waited to perform our first two songs, Hau, Hung, Quynh Nhu, Coco, and Do Quyen decided to have a quick photo shoot in front of “The Richard and Karen Carpenter Performing Arts Center.”

Lunch with Pham Ha

Song Xanh — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 04:11:31 +0000

... Hey! Let's go to Quan Hy!

After our last rehearsal before the performance, Song Xanh was hungry and ready to eat! We asked singer Pham Ha to join us and to our surprise he agreed … but he would only take a beverage – he does not eat before a performance. After many minutes of suggestions and options, we decide to go from the Carpenter Center in Long Beach back to Santa Ana to get some real Vietnamese food at Quan Hy. As we try to improve ourselves musically, our lunch with Pham Ha was a nice opportunity to talk to a soloist about tips and techniques that he uses.
