Give to Empower

Mùa Thu Cho Em Is Live This Year!

Mua Thu Cho Em started in 1994, and this year we will hold the 26th live concert in this fundraising series on November 6th, 2021, in Santa Clara, California.

In view of last year’s Covid-19 preventive measures, we did not conduct the event in 2020. Because of this hiatus, we have been inundated this year with requests from sponsors, volunteers, and MTCE fans for us to resume producing the show. In response to this demand, MTCE will be back, but with ample social distancing, masking, and vaccination requirements, so as to ensure a fun, safe, and healthy evening of music for everyone.

After 25 annual concerts, MTCE has become a household name in most Vietnamese American communities in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Orange County. This annual concert is an essential fundraising activity that allows us to perform charitable and relief work on behalf of the poor, handicapped, disadvantaged people in Vietnam’s most remote areas. It is in that spirit that we appeal to you, our benefactors, donors, friends, and devoted fans, to support the series, to donate generously during this year’s event, to purchase tickets for you, your families, friends, coworkers, and to come celebrate this Fall season with us at this live concert.

The Phuong Cam group, started in 2018 by pianist Minh Phuong, will entrance our MTCE 2021 audience with a combination of Vietnamese love songs from revered artists such as Pham Duy, Pham Dinh Chuong, Trinh Cong Son, Cung Tien and others, mixed in with French and American romantic music. They will also display their technical virtuoso, passion, and love of classical music by performing favorite compositions from Chopin, Amadeus Mozart, Johann Strauss, Ion Ivanovici, Johannes Brahms.

..And Its Beautiful, Talented Musicians

Phượng Cầm band leader Minh Phuong comes from a musical family living in Central Vietnam, was classically trained at the Hue National School of Music, and continued her studies and honing her skills with renowned piano instructors once she settled in the US in 2012. She showed her musical talents early in life, and has performed and garnered awards at many concerts in Vietnam, China, and Thailand. The Phuong Cam band is her brainchild and life’s project. It consists of nine young, attractive, and hugely talented women, all with academic degrees in music, playing an assortment of cello, violins and keyboards. Several of them are further blessed with beautiful voices, and the band is poised to conquer our hearts and minds here in the Bay Area.

Baritone Đình Bảo

Dinh Bao, born in 1981, is a baritone singer originally from Vietnam, having studied and graduated from the Music Conservatory in Saigon. In 2001 he and his brother Thuy Vu, together with two other male singers Hoang Bach and Nam Khanh, all from the Saigon Music Conservatory, formed the novel a capella all male singing group named AC&M. The group was well received by music lovers and made a name for itself by delivering captivating, harmonious, and technically flawless vocal performances of music written by renowned artists as well as songs that they themselves composed. While the group went on to successfully tour in the US (including at several MTCE concerts) and all over Vietnam, each of its members developed his own style and repertoire, and recorded separate albums and produced live shows of his own as well.

In 2008 Dinh Bao resettled in the US, and the AC&M group was disbanded. Dinh Bao initially had to study English on his own, taught music at Evergreen College in San Jose, and worked as a piano tuner. He continued with his musical career, however, and was soon noted and invited to cooperate in their programs by Thuy Nga Paris by Night productions. Subsequently Dinh Bao has appeared in many PBN concerts, DVDs, special shows, and most recently in many of their online, streaming, and YouTube videos. Dinh Bao appeared for the first time in the US in the MTCE 2007 concert as a member of the AC&M group. He went on to perform in our MTCE 2015 and 2019 events, and will be back for the upcoming 2021 production. He is an accomplished, classically trained musician, singer, songwriter, composer, and music arranger. He loves performing romantic songs and ballads, and will once again, by popular demand, be back this November to delight our MTCE audiences.
