Van Cao (born Nguy?n Van Cao, Vietnamese pronunciation: [??j???n van ka?w]; 15 November 1923 – 10 July 1995) was a Vietnamese composer whose works include "Ti?n Quân Ca", which became the national anthem of Vietnam.
He, along with Ph?m Duy and Tr?nh Công Son, is widely considered one of the three most salient figures of modern (non-classical) Vietnamese music.
