VTV.vn - The International Fingerstyle Guitar Festival (IFSGF), an annual Asian event that features a series of international fingerstyle guitar concerts, will be held in Hanoi on August 25th.

Many famous fingerstyle guitarists from different countries will be participating in the event. Fingerstyle, a new genre of solo guitar music in Vietnam, has been thriving in recent years.

The genre can be best described as one performer playing one guitar as if he were an entire band.

The festival has been organized throughout Asia since 2010, in countries such as Japan, Korea, Taiwan (China), Malaysia, and Singapore.
