ZULAL AT THE GETTY SEPT. 24
Mickie's Zoo
September 21, 2011 Wednesday 7:00 PM EST
The J. Paul Getty Museum presents Zulal, the latest in its series
of Gordon Getty Concerts on September 24. The Armenian word zulal
means "clear water." Fittingly, this concept has been adopted by an
enchanting a capella trio dedicated to creating music reflective of
its namesake: fluid, clean, and unconfined. The group weaves intricate
arrangements that pay tribute to the rural roots of the music while
introducing a sophisticated lyricism and energy.
To complement the exhibition "In the Beginning Was the Word": Medieval
Gospel Illumination, Teni Apelian, Yeraz Markarian, and Anaïs Tekerian
present a sublime evening of music drawn from Armenia's expansive
reservoir of folk, traditional, and church music. The trio has
performed in such esteemed venues as Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital
Hall, New York's Symphony Space, the John F. Kennedy Center for the
Performing Arts, the Museum of the City of New York, the Alex Theatre,
and the Longy School of Music along with performances for Cirque du
Soleil, the Near East Foundation and the Silk Road Project.
Zulal performs Saturday, September 24, 2011 at 7:30 p.m. at the Harold
M. Williams Auditorium, Getty Center.
