September is going to be a real cultural illumination period. Armenian
Jazz is 70.
It was in 1938 when the first official Armenian Jazz-band was
found. Many things have changed since those times, but our passionate
love for jazz is neverending.
Armenian jazzmen have acquired worldwide recognition and fame and now
in Yerevan some interesting arrangements are going to take place in
the light of jazz 70-th anniversary.
Nino Katamadze famous singer from Georgia will have a concert in Opera
house with her "Insight" band. Yerevan jazz-fans have exceptional
chance to listen to the unique performance of this talented singer
who makes interesting mixture of jazz and ethnic folks and gives you
unforgettable feelings.
On September 29 in Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra concert hall the
exclusive concert of legendary Jazz singer Tatevik Hovhannisyan will
take place. She is so talented, that they used to call her "Ella from
Yerevan". In early 80-s Hovhannisyan appeared in the USA; she still
sings her favorite jazz there.
The "queen" of Soviet jazz-vocal has proved she's real world jazz
star and made a successful career not only in America but in Europe
as well. By the way, she has a new contract with "Sony Classical"
music-company for the record of her 5 coming albums.
There are many jazz-clubs playing only live music in Yerevan now:
we have interesting international jazz festivals, different programs
and even "Radio Jazz" station dedicated only to this legendary music
direction.
