Arno Babajanian’s music to be performed at ALMA

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Armenian Library and Museum of America (ALMA) will host Sunday, Feb 10, a concert by students of the renowned Walnut Hill School for the Arts.

This collaboration between ALMA and the School includes the performance of a very special piece of Armenian music, Arno Babajanian's Piano Trio (written in 1952) which combines traditional Armenian melodies with richly Romantic textures, and serves as a musical testament to the feelings of nationalist identity of the Armenian people under Soviet domination, ALMA says in a press release.

The chamber groups will also present Erwin Schulhoff's Concertino for flute, viola and double bass, and Beethoven's Trio for clarinet, cello and piano.
