On May 7, the UN General Assembly will host a concert of the CIS
Youth Symphony Orchestra dedicated to the 65th anniversary of the
World War II Victory.
The orchestra's performance at the UN headquarters is very symbolic,
as the orchestra consists of young musicians of those nations, who
suffered the heaviest losses in this war and contributed significantly
to the victory over fascism.
The concert is organized by Russia's Permanent Representation in
the UN and CIS Foundation of Humanitarian Cooperation, through the
assistance of Permanent Representations of CIS countries in the UN.
The CIS Youth Symphony Orchestra is one of the most significant
projects launched by the CIS Foundation of Humanitarian Cooperation.
It aims to expand professional and personal contacts for creative
youth, to encourage professional growth of young musicians through
their communication with famous musicians and conductors.
Since its establishment in 2007, the CIS Youth Symphony Orchestra
has demonstrated high professionalism and rich potential in different
performance schools.
Armenia is represented by seven musicians:
Aram Beknazaryan - percussion Lusine Harutyunyan - violin Ashot
Dumanyan - violin Shaghik Martirosyan - violin Tatevik Shahinyan -
violin Veronika Vardpatrikyan - viola Artem Nagdyan - violoncello
The orchestra is unique, due to cooperation with the best CIS
conductors. This year, People's Artist of the USSR, worldwide known
Vladimir Spivakov will be conducting the orchestra, including the
May 7 concert. Besides, famous pianist, laureate of prestigious
international contests Denis Matsuyev will participate in the concert.
