The vibrant young Armenian pianist Kariné Poghosyan will perform
at St. Vartan Cathedral, 630 2nd Ave., New York City this evening,
September 25th, at 7:30 p.m., as part of the 2013-14 Concerts @
St.Vartan series. Ms. Poghosyan will also be leading the St. Vartan
orchestra in their inaugural appearance. The program will include
works by Schubert, Bach, and Liszt.
The complete program follows:
Schubert-Liszt: Ave Maria Bach: Piano Concert No. 1 in D minor (with
the St. Vartan Orchestra) Liszt: Sposalizio Liszt: Dante Sonata
Tickets are $10, $5 for students and seniors, free for children under
12, and will be sold at the door on the day of the concert. Tickets
can be reserved by calling 212-686-0710.
The exceptional Armenian pianist Kariné Poghosyan has been praised
for her ability to get to the heart of the works she performs. She
made her orchestral debut at 14 playing Beethoven's Piano Concerto
No.1, and her solo Carnegie Hall debut at 23, and has since gone on
to win numerous awards as well as perform in some of the world's most
prestigious concert halls.
An avid musician who has been described as "extraordinary" and
"larger than life," Kariné Poghosyan has performed in recitals
at Carnegie's Well Recital Hall, Merkin Concert Hall, Steinway
Hall, the Trinity Church Concerts at One series, the Beverly Hills
Sundays at Two series, the Valley Committee for the LA Philharmonic,
the Bach's Lunch Recital Series in California, the Young Artists
International Peninsula Festival in California, and the International
Keyboard Institute and Festival in New York. In the fall of 2007,
she organized and performed a three-recital concert series at the
Yamaha Piano Salon titled Twentieth Century Piano Sonata. Recently,
she helped organize the "Requiem and Resurrection" concert in
commemoration of the 95th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide at the
Saint Vartan Armenian Cathedral in New York, where her performance of
the Piano Sonata by Khachaturian received a standing ovation and was
described as "jaw-dropping." The Armenian Mirror Spectator wrote, "The
three-movement Khachaturian Sonata-a rarely performed composition-is a
real tour-de-force for the virtuoso pianist. Technically pristine, Ms.
Poghosyan brought out the driven qualities of the outer movements,
and the heart-rending beauty of the middle section."
