Quan Họ - Typical Northern Vietnamese music

It is hard to talk about the origin of Quan Họ singing, but it was first recorded in the 13^th century. Quan Họ is a singing battle where “liền chị” (female singers) sing “câu ra” (a challenge phrase), then “liền anh” (male singers) will respond by selecting and singing “câu đối” (a matching phrase). The order will be reserved in the next time.

Traditional Quan Họ was unaccompanied by instruments but only voices of singers to compose rhythm. Quan Họ performances today are accompanied by some musical instruments, such as monochord or bamboo flute, etc.

Themes of most of the songs are love songs with romantic and sentimental lyrics which have been passed on by word of mouth.

Quan Họ songs possess the spirit of local people and help tighten bonds among villages. Quan Họ singing is an old Vietnamese type of art that needs preserving.

America's Got Talent

Originating in 2006, America's Got Talent (also known as AGT) is an American reality television series on NBC. The show was developed with the help of Simon Cowell but due to Idol and Fox obligations, he has never judged. The show is a talent competition which has no restrictions to age or act, with the main focus on whether or not it was entertaining. It is divided into three main rounds. The acts first compete on stage in front of an audience and the three or four judges. Each judge has a loud 'X' buzzer which they can press if they feel an act is not meeting expectations. If an act gets all the judges to buzz, it is immediately over and they are out of the competition. These remain active throughout the show, but during later rounds frequently get used.

It starts off with the audition week held across the country where acts have roughly 90 seconds to impress the judges and an area audience. Following each act, the judges quickly vote and based on majority rules decide if the contestants go to the next round or are cut on the spot.

Following the audition week, the show and accepted acts move to Vegas where the acts perform again, only this time in front of only the judges and no audience. Following Vegas week, the judges cut the competition aggressively to 48 acts to move onto the next, the most important round. The 48 acts chosen go onto the live quarter-finals in various cities to compete on live television for the audience votes as the power now shifts away from the judges. There are 4 quarter finals with 12 acts performing each week (4 advance each), followed by two semifinals (4 advance each) followed by the final where the winner is declared. The grand prize winner will receive one million US dollars and a chance for their own show in Vegas.
