Erebuni Armenian Chorus to sing May 15
Thursday, April 28, 2005
The Erebuni Armenian Chorus of Greater Boston will hold its Spring
Concert on May 15 at 3 p.m. at the Sacred Heart Church, 1321 Centre
St., Newton.
A special feature of Erebuni's program will be an appearance by
the children's chorus of the Montessori Educare School of Newton and
the St. James Armenian Church Jr. Choir/Chorale of Watertown. More
than 60 youngsters, many of whom are not of Armenian descent, will
share their unique repertoire which includes Armenian music.
This is the 10th anniversary year for the Erebuni Chorus which
performs a cappella music, much of which has been arranged for
four-part singing by its founder and artistic director, Maestro Artur
Veranian. The chorus has an international repertoire of music -
Armenian and non-Armenian, traditional and classical, liturgical and
modern. The group has been invited again this year to appear at the
Massachusetts State House during its annual Armenian Genocide
commemorative program in April.
Erebuni's Spring Concert will include musical compositions of
Komitas Vardapet, Makar Ekmalian, Sayat Nova, Alexander Haroutunian,
Robert Amirkhanian, and Robert Petrossian, among others. Conducting
the entire program, both adult and children's choruses, will be
Maestro Veranian, who has won many grand and special prizes in
international competitions in Italy, Germany and Spain. Former
conductor of the Armenian State Academic Chorus and the State Chamber
Orchestra in Armenia, Veranian is currently on the faculty of the
Montessori Educare School and is music director of St. James Armenian
Apostolic Church.
Tickets for the concert are available through any Erebuni Chorus
member at $15 for adults and $5 for children under 12. For further
