Just a quick note of clarification: When I said that I consider "Hon Vong Phu" to be the "Doan Truong Tan Thanh" of VNmese music, I meant to convey the idea that the former's place in Viet music is comparable to the latter's in Viet literature, and that Le Thuong's contribution to Viet culture overall is comparable to that of Nguyen Du. Sorry for the confusion. Ian
