Le Uyen Phuong is the first half of the famous duo
Le Uyen & Phuong. As a youngster in Da Lat, he was encouraged by his family
and friends to pursue music. He studied music under Francois Regor and learned
composing through books and by listening to may types of music.
Le Uyen Phuong composed using this name. When he
performs with his wife, he uses Le Uyen va Phuong. In 1960, he wrote his first song,
Buon Den Bao Gio in Pleiku. Le Uyen Phuong claims to write songs based on
his own experience, not on his imagination. To date, he has written ten volumes of music,
four of which are love songs.
When asked whether he has any favorite songs, Le Uyen Phuong
only says that all are his favorite, because those that he disliked have already been
edited out of the volumes. He only allows those he likes to be published.
Le Uyen is the other half of the duo Le Uyen va Phuong. She made her
debut in the late sixties performing songs written by Le Uyen Phuong and
became a household name in a relatively short time. In 1970, she recorded
Tinh ca Le Uyen Phuong, which elevated her to stardom.
Le Uyen arrived to the United States in 1979. She immediately
participated in various entertainment activities. She has appeared in many concerts and stages
all over the world and has recorded several tapes and CDs.
