THREE MO" TENORS PERFORMING IN ARMENIA
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 1, ARMENPRESS: A famous American
musical group called Three Mo' Tenors is giving two
concerts in Yerevan, one today and the other on
September 2 and will give a concert for residents of
Armenia's second largest town of Gyumri on September
3.
Music experts say more people are becoming
interested in classical music because it is being
presented in new ways by new groups. One such group is
Three Mo' Tenors. Three Mo' Tenors present concerts
that celebrate many kinds of music. Their first
concert was presented in New York City in the summer
of 2000. Since then, they have performed in many
cities in the United States and the world.
A tenor is the highest natural adult male singing
voice. Three African-American singers perform as Three
Mo' Tenors. They are Victor Trent Cook, Rodrick Dixon
and Thomas Young. They sing seven different kinds of
music -- opera, songs from Broadway shows, jazz,

as other kinds of music. Victor Trent Cook received a
