The Dan Tranh is also known as sixteen-stringed zither. The Dan Tranh originates from the ancient capital city of Hue, where women once played it for royalty, and the instrument is still considered a symbol of the city. Sissi, " my " wonderful Vietnamese model is playing this instrument from her fifth year.
When playing, artist usually wears finger-nail plectrums on thumb, forefinger and middle finger to pluck. The music of the Dan Tranh is usually light and full of cheerfulness.
