Nha Nhac, meaning “elegant music”, refers to a wide range of musical and dance styles performed at the Vietnamese royal court from the fifteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Nha Nhac was generally performed at the opening and closing of ceremonies associated with anniversaries, religious holidays, funerals and so on. Among the numerous musical genres that developed in Viet Nam, only Nha Nhac is popular on a nationwide scale and has strong links with the traditions of other East Asian countries. During Nha Nhac performances, there were numerous singers, dancers and musicians dressed in gorgeous costumes. Large-scale orchestras included a drum section and many other types of instruments like wind and string instruments. All performers had to maintain a high level of concentration because they were expected to follow each step of the ritual carefully. Nha Nhac developed during the Le Dynasty (1427-1788) and reached the peak under the Nguyen Dynasty (1802-1945). As a symbol of the dynasty’s power and longevity, Nha Nhac became an essential part of the court’s many ceremonies. However, the role of Nha Nhac was not limited to musical accompaniment for court rituals: it also provided a means of communicating with and showing respect to the gods and kings as well as providing knowledge about nature and the universe. The fall of the monarchy and the decades of war in 20 th century seriously threatened the survival of Nha Nhac and made this musical tradition lose its original function. However, the few surviving former court musicians continue to work to keep the tradition alive. Certain forms of Nha Nhac have been maintained in popular rituals and religious ceremonies and become a source of inspiration for contemporary Vietnamese music.

It is commonly believed that music feeds the soul because it soothes your soul and relaxes your mind. Music has always been the best source for expressing your feelings and emotions and telling stories. Among all the popular genres of music, pop music has become the most popular one since it was first introduced. The word ‘Pop’ itself is derived from ‘popular’. It was named so because it became so popular right after its introduction. Pop, as a separate genre, consists of simple patterns and rhythms. It is proved that the human brain likes patterns, and the patterns that are easy to remember are more likeable than the difficult ones. Patterns make the music more attractive and engaging, and easy and simple patterns are easy to pick, which is why our brain likes
them more. Additionally, patterns add to the rhythm of the song and its music. Rhythms make us sing along and dance with the lyrics and beats of the music. Also, pop music usually repeats its patterns, rhythms, and lyrics as well because most of the songs have the same themes and topics. All this makes pop a popular genre among all. It has been found that pop music is usually louder than the songs of other genres. It is believed that the volume of these songs is kept louder than others on purpose. Pop songs sound louder than others even if played on the same volume. Louder songs get the attention of people more easily and quickly as sounds become catchier to the listeners. The louder and catchier a song is; the more attention it gets from the audience. As more and more people listen to a song, its popularity increases. To conclude, the louder you sound, the more you’re heard.
