    Iranian musician Loris Tjeknavorian is to conduct the Armenian chamber
    orchestra at benefit concerts for Tehran's Mahak Charity Society from
    May 26 to June 2.

    Iranian Santour virtuoso Ardavan Kamkar and prominent Kamancheh player
    Ardeshir Kamkar will also have solo performances in the program,
    the Mehr News Agency said on Wednesday.

    This is the orchestra's third benefit concert organized by the Mahak
    Charity Society, an institute that supports Iranian children suffering
    from cancer. The proceeds from the concerts will be spent on providing
    services for the children struggling with cancer.

    The orchestra performed several pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach
    and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart during the previous programs as well as
    Kurdish and Iranian suites and pieces composed by Tjeknavorian.
