PREMIERE OF "LAMB" BY TIGRAN MANSURIAN TAKES PLACE AT 15th COMPETITION AFTER OLEG KAGAN IN GERMANY
YEREVAN, JULY 24, NOYAN TAPAN. The premiere of the "Lamb" work by
Tigran Mansurian took place at the 15th festival after world-famous
violin-player Oleg Kagan held on July 1-15 in Germany. The festival
with the motto "Music for a Friend" opened with another work by
T.Mansurian, "Posludia."
As T.Mansurian informed at the July 21 press conference, the "Lamb"
was created by the order of festival organizers. It was also mentioned
that the Armenian composer was the only one who received an order to
create a work specially for the festival.
T.Mansurian cooperates with Munich ECM company. The latter periodically
releases his CDs that are spread all over the world. ECM has released 5
CDs by T.Mansurian and next year will release the CD of the "Lamb." "I
have never seen such attention towards my creation. I am glad that
my works are spread in the U.S., in Europe," the composer emphasized.
According to T.Mansurian, a new creative period started for him
after the independence. "I am an independent person and never wait
for anybody's honorarium or evaluation. I wish this independence was
given to me some decades ago when I had more opportunities to create
and to introduce myself to the world," T.Mansurian said. T.Mansurian
is convinced that today's young creators have more opportunities to
gain fame and to present their art in the homeland and abroad.
