Khổng Minh toạ lầu, On Top of the Citadel, Octave Version, is a Vietnamese folk music. It retells the story of 孔明 Khổng Minh, The Hán Dynasty master strategist, who was left to defend a citadel without troops. When the enemy came, he climbed up to the tower and played music. The enemy was scared, and went away.

This song, octave version, is played with two or three fingers, using octave picking, both in block and in arpeggio, to depict strength, confident, and a sense of humor.

A concert directed by Master Hải Phượng
