The esteemed Bosphorus Quartet from Istanbul, Turkey will perform at
Komitas Chamber Music Hall in Yerevan on June 18.
During the concert the quartet will perform pieces by European,
Turkish, and Armenian composers.
The concert is part of a cultural exchange between Armenia and Turkey
made possible by Eurasia Partnership Foundation (EPF), in cooperation
with the United States Agency for International Development and the
Komitas State Quartet NCSO. As part of the exchange, the Yerevan
Komitas State Quartet will perform in Istanbul on June 13.
According to the report provided to Noyan Tapan by the Eurasia
Partnership Foundation, the two concerts will continue the 2002
musical exchange between the Komitas State Quartet and their
Turkish counterparts. This project intends to forge a musical bridge
between Armenia and Turkey, celebrating the artists of each country
while establishing a practice of cultural cooperation, says Gevorg
Ter-Gabrielyan, Country Director of Eurasia Partnership Foundation
in Armenia. "We believe that supporting cross-border grass-roots
initiatives between Armenian and Turkish civil society activists,
businessmen, journalists, and artists will accelerate the normalization
of relations between the two countries," the office Director said.
