Lê Dung

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

NSND Lê Dung (5 June 1951 in Hòn Gai, Quảng Ninh – 29 January 2001 in Hanoi) was a Vietnamese soprano opera singer. She was a student at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory and toured and performed widely in Eastern Europe.[1] She won prizes at Sofia, Bulgaria 1987, Toulouse 1988 and Pyongyang. She was a member of the Hanoi Opera but also sang and recorded the works of Phú Quang and other popular songwriters. In 1993, she became the youngest ever person to be accredited as People's Artist ("NSND"), Vietnam's top artistic award for a living artist - second only to the often posthumous Ho Chi Minh Prize.[2]
