La Maritza/Dòng sông tuổi nhỏ - Sylvie Vartan - Cover on lever harp

La Maritza - Sylvie Vartan - Arranged and cover on the lever harp and piano
I found this song yesterday and immediately got up at midnight to start arranging it on the harp.
And spend half of my Sunday playing both harp and piano to my arrangement. This is such an absolute beautiful song! ❤️
.
Maritza is a river running through Southeastern Europe. "La Maritza" is a french song composed by Jean Renard and Pierre Delanoë.
Apparently is is composed in memory of the composer's childhood river, the Maritza river. However I am not sure how accurate this is.
.
The song has been translated to many languages including Vietnamese with the name "dòng sông tuổi nhỏ" (means "Childhood river")
.
Original French version by Sylvie Vartan (1968):

Vietnamese and French version by Thùy Dung:
   • Dòng Sông Tuổi Nhỏ| La maritza  -THÙY...  

I found out about Thuy Dung literally yesterday and immediately hook on her voice. Not many Vietnamese can sing French like this anymore.

Enjoy! 🙂
