Check out some of the comments we received after the show!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Having all 3 singers in the first song was excellent.\u00a0 I&#8217;m instantly hooked &amp; [it] gave me a great first impression. Ha Anh Tuan, Thu Phuong &amp; Quang Linh&#8217;s voices complimented each other very well.The individual performances were good, but I enjoyed the duets &amp; trio performances even more.<br \/>\n&#8211; guest of a VNHELP board member<\/p>\n<p>Wow!
