In 2013 the whole musical world celebrates the 110th anniversary of
the great Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian, on the occasion of
which Aram Khachaturian International Festival will be held worldwide
within the whole year.
The opening ceremony will take place on June 6, the birthday of the
great musician. On the same day in Yerevan the 9th Aram Khachaturian
International Competition will be launched this year for cello

the world will arrive in Yerevan. During the opening ceremony of the
contest the State Youth Orchestra of Armenia, which has been the
official orchestra of the competition since 2007, and world-renowned
cellist Gautier Capuçon from France will perform.
Aram Khachaturian International Competition was implemented thanks to

Khachaturian-competition' Cultural Foundation and Yerevan Komitas
State Conservatory. It is held under the high patronage of the First
Lady of RA Mrs. Rita Sargsyan, who is honorary president of the board
of trustees of the competition. Since 2010 the main partner of the

The membership of Aram Khachaturian International Competition in this
prestigious federation is a great honor. It opens new perspectives and
is another step on the way to present Armenian culture to the world.
