VOV.VN - A performance by a five-tone (ngũ âm) musical ensemble, a Pinn Peat orchestra of the Khmer people, in the Mekong Delta province of Soc Trang was recognised as the largest of its kind in the nation by the Vietnam Records Organization (Vietkings).
At the opening ceremony of the Ooc Om Boc festival on November 13, the administration of Soc Trang receives a certificate of Vietnamese record for a performance of a five-tone (ngũ âm) musical ensemble.
This comes after Soc Trang province holds a large-scale Khmer five-tone musical performance on November 11 with the aim of securing a Vietnamese record and promoting the Khmer community's rich cultural heritage by bringing this traditional folk art to a wider audience.
The performance features 20 five-tone musical ensembles and draws the participation of 200 artists and musicians.
The event is part of activities held within the framework of the sixth Ooc Om Boc - Ngo boat racing festival and the first Soc Trang Culture, Sports and Tourism Week.
The five-tone musical ensemble, or Pinn Peat orchestra, is a form of orchestral music for religious rituals.
It is closely associated with Theravada Buddhism in pagodas and hamlets of the Khmer people in the Mekong Delta province of Soc Trang.
This genre of music is a popular and long-standing traditional musical genre of the Khmer people who reside in the southern region.
The five-tone musical ensemble is an orchestra composed of five tones of musical instruments from five different materials, all of which serve to create five distinct timbres.
This genre of music is included in the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2019.
