Dear members
Bonjour !
I am a student in ethnomusicology ; I am doing a thesis on "Ca trù", a traditional music of VN. (I made investigations in 3 places essentially : Hà Nôi, the village of Lô Khê (Dong Anh), Sai Gon.)
I will be very interested to discuss with you on these subjects :
-In the actual vietnamese society, what has become of the 4 classes "si, nong, cong,thuong" (the musicians and actors were the lower classes, "xuong ca vo loai"). Do you know a study of sociology on this subject ?
-An other subject which interests me for my thesis : prostitution under french colonization in the "ca quan" (singer houses) in Ha Noi essentially.
If you know some informations of these questions, thank you before !
Aliénor Anisensel

Dear Aliénor,
I am also a student in ethnomusicology (University of Sheffield) conducting research on the roles of traditional Vietnamese music in Hanoi. Unfortunately I don’t have any answers for your questions but I would be very interested in discussing both of our projects with you. Please feel free to email me (lonanobriain@hotmail.com) with any questions.
Best wishes,
Lonán Ó Briain
