On May 21 the Arno Babajanyan Concert Hall hosted a press conference
devoted to the release of the `Anthology of Armenian Chamber Music
(Part 1: Works for Cello and Piano)', a new project by `Ars Lunga'
duo. Speakers at the press conference were Honored Artist of the
Republic of Armenia, cellist of the `Ars Lunga' duo and the co-founder
of the `Anthology of Armenian Chamber Music' project Aram Talalyan,
pianist of the `Ars Lunga' duo and the co-founder of the `Anthology of
Armenian Chamber Music' project Julietta Vardanyan, Honored Worker of
the Republic of Armenia, composer Tigran Mansuryan, composer, member
of Union of composers and musicologists of Armenia Ashot Zohrabyan,
Head of the Department of Art of the Ministry of Culture Seyranuhi
Geghamyan, and the chairman of the `Yerevan International Rotary' Club
Koryun Danielyan.
The `Anthology of Armenian Chamber Music' is a unique collection in
the history of the Armenian musicology as the greater part of pieces
by Armenian composers written for cello and piano have either never
been performed, or have been performed decades ago and the recordings
now need restoration.
The `Ars Lunga' duo has compiled works of some 60 Armenian composers
of the 20th-21st centuries, written for cello and piano, has performed
them and has recorded them using modern technologies and in compliance
with the modern requirements of recording. The collections which make
sets of 12 CDs are also completed with biographies of the composers of
the included works.
The recordings are not for sale. They will be donated to the libraries
of the largest universities of the world, music festivals, colleges
and educational institutions of music, composers' unions, and radio
stations playing classical music.
Every musical institution with a library will also receive a sample of
the recording for the use in literature and history of music courses.
The general sponsor of the `Anthology of Armenian Chamber Music' (Part
1: Works for Cello and Piano) project is VivaCell-MTS. The project was
implemented with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the
Republic of Armenia. The sponsor of the project is the `Yerevan
International Rotary' Club.
The author of idea of the `Anthology of Armenian Chamber Music'
project and its implementers is the `Ars Lunga' duo, particularly Aram
Talalyan and Julietta Vardanyan. The project includes a wide spectrum
of examples of the Armenian academic musical tradition from the early
20th century to our days, including pieces by the young generation of
composers, who have devoted some of their works to the duo as a
contribution into the project.
The `Anthology of Armenian Chamber Music' project is comprised of
several parts. The `Ars Lunga' duo plans to continue the series of
recordings and to include chamber pieces for piano trios, quartets,
quintets and other as well in the collection.
