We’re honored to share that Lang Van has been featured in Woman’s World with a beautiful article exploring how Vietnamese music continues to connect generations across the diaspora.

For over six decades, Lang Van has carried forward the vision of Mama Leonor, who founded the label in 1963 with a dream of preserving and sharing Vietnamese culture through music. Today, our catalog of classic recordings and contemporary works remains a living archive — one that speaks not just to nostalgia, but also to identity, memory, and the universal power of sound.

“Every generation has a distinct sound,” says Mimi Nguyễn, COO of Làng Văn, a Vietnamese-American cultural institution and music company. “When you listen to a song from the ‘70s or ‘80s, you not only hear the music. You hear how love, heartbreak, or longing was expressed in that moment in time. The choice of words, the instruments, the rhythms, they all tell a story of that era.”

The feature highlights how music serves as a bridge between past and present, carrying stories of migration, resilience, and belonging. Whether it’s a timeless ballad that reminds parents of home or a vibrant pop song that resonates with younger audiences discovering their roots, Lang Van continues to nurture connections across borders and generations.

Song of the Week: Phiên Khúc Một Chiều Mưa – Chế Linh

🎶 Song of the Week: “Phiên Khúc Một Chiều Mưa” by Chế Linh

Written by Song Ngọc, Hoài Linh · ISRC: USJ3V1105757

There are songs that echo across generations, not just as melodies, but as living reflections of memory, longing, and resilience. This week, we highlight “Phiên Khúc Một Chiều Mưa” (A Song on a Rainy Afternoon), performed by the legendary Chế Linh, composed by Song Ngọc & Lê Văn Linh, released on CHẾ LINH – ANTHOLOGY 1983 – 1989 under Làng Văn.

About the Artist: Chế Linh

A towering figure in Vietnamese popular music, Chế Linh has a voice that carries both tenderness and strength. Known for his expressive delivery and deeply emotional ballads, his career has spanned decades, shaping the soundtrack of countless lives. With his unique ability to bring vulnerability and reflection into even the most energetic tempos, Chế Linh bridges the gap between pop, rock, and world music traditions, making his music timeless.

The Song: Energy in Reflection

Though “Phiên Khúc Một Chiều Mưa” pulses with a fast tempo and driving instrumentation—bass, drums, and electric guitar the mood remains reflective, retro, and bittersweet. At its heart, it is a song about remembering lost love and fleeting moments, framed by the imagery of a rainy afternoon.

The rain becomes both a backdrop and a metaphor: a force of nature that blurs vision, slows footsteps, and awakens memories long tucked away. Chế Linh’s male vocal performance cuts through the instrumentation with raw honesty, pulling the listener into a space of nostalgia and contemplation.

Lyrical Echoes

The song’s lyrics beautifully capture that ache of remembrance:

“Kỷ niệm nào ghi nhất trong tim
Nghe chiều ray rứt mãi không quên…
Có lần dừng chân giữa cơn mưa
Bên hàng hiên ai đứng suy tư…”

These lines place the listener directly in a moment of pause standing under the rain, watching, remembering, and feeling the weight of what has passed. They transform an ordinary rainy afternoon into a timeless meditation on love, longing, and impermanence.

Why It Resonates Today

In 1993, the song spoke to personal loss and longing. Today, in 2025, it resonates in new ways:

• Fast-paced lives, reflective hearts Even as we rush through a hyper-connected world, songs like this remind us that reflection is still necessary.
• Rain as renewal In a time when change feels constant and sometimes overwhelming, the rain can symbolize cleansing, growth, and resilience.
• Retro yet timeless Its vintage pop-ballad sound feels especially alive in today’s era of rediscovering analog warmth, vinyl, and authenticity.

As storms literal and metaphorical—pass through our daily lives, “Phiên Khúc Một Chiều Mưa” reminds us that beauty and meaning are found in moments of pause, even amidst the downpour.

Composer Spotlight: Nguyễn Văn Đông

Few figures in Vietnamese music embody the delicate balance between tradition, longing, and innovation as profoundly as Nguyễn Văn Đông. Known as the “Elegiac Master” of Vietnam, his work carved an unmistakable path through the nation’s musical landscape his songs speaking not only to personal heartbreak but also to the shared sorrows and resilience of a people navigating turbulent times.

A Life in Music and Service

Born in 1932 in Sài Gòn, Nguyễn Văn Đông’s career was not only that of a composer but also a soldier and cultural ambassador. Serving as a colonel in the South Vietnamese Army, he carried the weight of national conflict while writing songs that reflected the fragility of love and the permanence of memory. His dual identity as both military man and musician gave his compositions a rare gravity. They were not only art, but also testimony.

The Sound of Elegy

Nguyễn Văn Đông’s catalog is filled with songs of yearning: for lost love, for homeland, for a moment of peace. Classics such as “Chiều Mưa Biên Giới” and “Sắc Hoa Màu Nhớ” are not simply love songs they are meditations on impermanence, sung with the weight of lived experience. His melodic structures often carried a haunting stillness, while his lyrics wrapped grief in poetry.

Stories Behind the Songs

1. Sắc Hoa Màu Nhớ (The Color of Nostalgic Flowers)

In an interview, composer Nguyễn Văn Đông shared the background of Sắc Hoa Màu Nhớ:

“At that time, the Plain of Reeds (Đồng Tháp Mười) was still a vast wilderness, covered in endless reeds, sparsely populated with people living in clusters on high mounds amidst the swampy, flooded land all year round. Back then, those in the rear saw the Plain of Reeds as a mysterious land filled with legends of ghostly rice fields feeding soldiers, about General Binh Kiều and the warrior Thiên Hộ Vương from the anti-French era, with their glorious battles at Gãy Cờ Đen and Gò Tháp, whose feats are still engraved on stone tablets at the Tháp Mười Pagoda today.

That spring, my unit was stationed at Gò Bắc Chiêng, in Mộc Hóa, near the Vietnam-Cambodia border, later becoming the provincial capital of Kiến Tường… Since I was single, I was assigned to remain at the unit during the Tet holiday and to keep the Operations Diary.

Even though nobody expected fighting to occur on New Year’s Day, military orders had to be strictly followed. Three days before Tet, I was ordered to the forward outpost, reinforcing our stronghold, carrying a backpack with dry rations and a photo of my younger sister from the rear — which eventually became the muse for writing the love song Sắc Hoa Màu Nhớ.”

The song’s lyrics interweave loyalty to homeland with an intimate personal longing:

“My life as a soldier, I send my love to the mountains and rivers
Cherishing the color that evokes loyalty
Yet still, I remember the sky, remember forever
Flamboyant flowers fall in my heart…”

The line about autumn “Flamboyant petals fall welcoming autumn’s arrival / The color of longing, oh autumn, I miss you so much” was also a subtle dedication to Ms. Thu, Nguyễn Văn Đông’s devoted wife.

2. Chiều Mưa Biên Giới (Rainy Afternoon at the Border)

This song was composed in 1956, when Nguyễn Văn Đông was a First Lieutenant and head of operations in the Đồng Tháp Mười military zone. He later recounted:

“On our way back, we were caught in a stormy afternoon with howling winds and driving rain. In the desolate field, the distant watchtowers barely visible at the horizon, the cold wind cut through like salt on skin. From within that scene, deep emotions stirred within me, and the initial melancholic melody of the song Chiều Mưa Biên Giới Anh Đi Về Đâu… (‘Rainy Afternoon at the Border, where are you going…’) was born.

Dedicated to the soldiers braving sun and rain on the frontlines,
giving themselves for the country, and to the young men
about to don the military uniform.
In memory of the Plain of Reeds (Vietnam-Cambodia Border, 1956).”

The song struck a chord with audiences. Reportedly, it was “reissued six times within two months,” breaking records for popularity at the time. It quickly became a favorite among artists and critics alike, securing its place as one of the defining works of Vietnamese music in the 20th century.

Legacy and Influence

Despite restrictions on his music after 1975, Nguyễn Văn Đông’s works endured through memory, recordings, and the diaspora community. For generations of Vietnamese listeners worldwide, he became a keeper of emotional truth: a composer who articulated what many felt but could not say.

His influence continues today in both Vietnam and abroad, inspiring new generations of artists and resonating with audiences who recognize in his songs a mirror of their own struggles and longing.

Why He Matters Today

In an era when music is often immediate and fleeting, Nguyễn Văn Đông’s songs remind us of the enduring power of reflection. His work feels strikingly contemporary in 2025, when audiences worldwide are turning again toward music that offers meaning and depth. His songs resonate with anyone who has lived through uncertainty, displacement, or loss—making his voice as vital today as it was more than half a century ago.

Today, music effortlessly travels across borders, and cultural lines blur with each viral beat. The modern soundscape is an open frontier, where genres intermingle, heritage meets hype, and where cultural identities are reshaped with every mix. Melodies rooted in specific cultures are finding homes in global playlists. This is the landscape in which Làng Văn, a Vietnamese-American cultural institution and multimedia company, steps forward to preserve the legacy of Vietnamese music while ensuring its relevance and resonance with future generations.

Làng Văn is situated in Westminster, California, the heart of the Vietnamese diaspora in the United States. It’s a steward of culture, a curator of memory, and an innovator in music technology. Since its founding in 1982, Làng Văn has grown into the most expansive Vietnamese music archive in the world, a living testament to decades of artistic expression. Housing numerous sound recordings, compositions, videos, and record labels, the company’s catalog spans the sonic spectrum, from traditional folk ballads to experimental hip hop. Essentially, Làng Văn has helped shape the nation’s music.

Still, Làng Văn isn’t simply looking back. It’s looking forward with intention. Its leadership, the daughter of the original founders, Lan Nguyễn and Chúc Lê, understands that while music may begin in a specific place or time, its impact should never be confined. The company now finds itself at a pivotal crossroads where its legacy meets opportunity. How does one evolve heritage without losing its soul? How does one modernize the message without diluting the meaning?

Làng Văn COO, Mimi Nguyễn, found that the answer lies in embracing global relevance without abandoning cultural roots. She states, “Just as K-pop shattered assumptions about what non-English music could achieve worldwide, Vietnamese music, too, holds untapped global potential.” Làng Văn sees this moment clearly.

“We think of music as an emotional bridge,” Nguyễn says. “A familiar rhythm or lyric can transport someone to a distant memory, taking them back to the exact moment they first heard the sound. We want to make Vietnamese music accessible sonically and emotionally.” Essentially, the company is exploring how Vietnamese music can live on global stages not as a relic but as a relevant, contemporary force.

Làng Văn sees technology as a critical tool in this vision. It’s currently laying the groundwork for integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into its creative process, aiming to use its exclusive rights to its massive catalog. Làng Văn, with full ownership of its material, has the freedom to innovate without compromise.

It’s experimenting with ways to blend traditional Vietnamese vocals with modern beats, exploring AI-generated remixes that honor legacy while pushing sonic boundaries. “Imagine a classic ballad reinterpreted with dancefloor energy or a folk melody transformed into lo-fi soundscapes for Gen Z listeners. That’s what we want to create,” says  Nguyễn.

The new generation behind Làng Văn is deliberately pulling back the curtain, inviting audiences into the stories behind the music. For decades, the company let its work speak for itself, with the founders remaining largely anonymous. But today, that’s changing. The family is ready to share the inspirations, sacrifices, and creative choices that have shaped the Làng Văn sound.

Làng Văn looks forward to beginning its new chapter with digital platforms, AI experimentation, and global ambitions. Its philosophy remains the same: music has no borders, but it does have roots. And those roots matter. They’re what gives the music its soul, truth, and power to connect across time and space. Whether remastering old records for streaming platforms or reimagining legacy tracks through AI, Làng Văn is shaping a future where Vietnamese music evolves, thrives, and resonates worldwide.

Meet Xuân Mai – Vietnam’s Youngest Icon

Xuân Mai is one of Vietnam’s most celebrated child singers. Bursting into the spotlight at an astonishingly young age, she captured hearts across generations with her angelic voice and charismatic performances. Her discography includes numerous best-selling children’s albums and live concert tours, with songs like “Con Cò Bé Bé,” “Cha Mẹ Là Tất Cả,” and of course, “Tân Cổ Tía Má Em.”

Her name continues to resonate today, thanks in part to nostalgic millennials and Gen Z fans, as well as a new wave of young audiences discovering her music on platforms like TikTok and YouTube. With billions of views across social media and streaming platforms, she remains a cultural icon — a rare case of a child star whose songs still carry deep emotional meaning decades later.

A Timeless Voice for a Growing Generation

Vietnam’s youth market is massive, with over 16 million children aged 0–9 and a growing diaspora worldwide in countries like the United States, Australia, Canada, and France. With Vietnam ranking #6 globally for TikTok usage, artists like Xuân Mai are uniquely positioned to reach both nostalgic fans and curious new listeners across generations.

Her early success would likely qualify for a Guinness World Record — as the youngest Vietnamese artist to embark on concert tours, sign album deals, and release music under a record label. Her legacy lives on not just as a musical phenomenon, but as a symbol of childhood, family, and cultural connection.
