Phuong Hoa Master Craftsman Brass Instruments Repair

Master Craftsman Phoung Hoa manages and repair musical Brass instrument from around the world. Visited Phoung Hoa at his repair shop on Sept 4, 2014. He sells used instruments, repairs them at his location in Nam Dinh Vietnam

Building, repairing, and even playing brass instruments like trumpets and clarinets is a long tradition for the residents of Pham Phao village in the northern province of Nam Dinh’s Hai Hau District.

They say

“I can’t say what made me fall in love with Vietnam - that a woman’s voice can drug you; that everything is so intense. The colors, the taste, even the rain. Nothing like the filthy rain in London. They say whatever you’re looking for, you will find here. They say you come to Vietnam and you understand a lot in a few minutes, but the rest has got to be lived. The smell: that’s the first thing that hits you, promising everything in exchange for your soul. And the heat. Your shirt is straightaway a rag. You can hardly remember your name, or what you came to escape from. But at night, there’s a breeze. The river is beautiful. You could be forgiven for thinking there was no war; that the gunshots were fireworks; that only pleasure matters. A pipe of opium, or the touch of a girl who might tell you she loves you. And then, something happens, as you knew it would. And nothing can ever be the same again.”
― Graham Greene, The Quiet American
