Is there any place these days to see any kind of traditional music in Saigon? I've heard Mockingbird cafe?

- Conservatory of Ho Chi Minh City (112 Nguyễn Du, D1). The link for traditional music doesn't work, but I know there are all kinds of concerts going all the time. Has been for many decades, even before the name was changed (used to be National School of Music and Drama). Thousands of great musicians and performance artists came from there.

- The Fig (http://thefigcafe.net/our_philosophy.html). Check with them for their scheduled events.

- Trúc Mai House (104 Phạm Viết Chánh, Bình Thạnh) Their concerts are a family affair.

- Indika House (43 Nguyễn Văn Giai, D1) held an event called Old Saigon by For Many Reasons last April. They may (or may not) have something similar in the future.
