The two inspirational musicians blew away audience with their touching solo guitar performances with only the left hand. Both are well-known for overcoming their disabilities to master guitar skills.
Vinh, an orphan since childhood, lost his right hand in an accident when he was a third grader.
The show aimed at raising fund for Huong Duong (Sunflower) centre, home to disabled and orphaned children managed by Vinh.
