Greg Hosharian with the Montebello City Council
MONTEBELLO, Calif.--On April 9th, the Montebello City Council
presented a Proclamation to musician, conductor and resident Gregory
Hosharian for his successful symphonic concert event to benefit the
"Edward Hosharian Scholarship Fund." The concert included works by
some of history's most revered composers, and featured an orchestral
arrangement of traditional folk melodies from the Armenian Highlands.
Also featured was the inspiring voice of soloist mezzo-soprano Talin
Nalbandian, a recipient of the Edward Hosharian Fund Scholarship.
Trumpeter, Tom Woo, performed the prolific Alexander Arutiunian
Trumpet Concerto in A-Flat Major.
During his presentation to his childhood friend, Montebello Mayor
Pro-Tem Jack Hadjinian stated, "Greg and I go back to the days
of diapers, years later we started college together, then of
course he continued his education to earn a Master's Degree in
Music Composition. Greg has an enormous amount of talent, but what
impresses me most is the fact that he is putting his talent to good
use by honoring his father's legacy with a scholarship fund to help
the less fortunate attend music schools."
Hadjinian also stated that as community leaders "we must promote the
arts, because that's the only way some people can express themselves."
Greg Hosharian was born and raised in Montebello, began playing piano
at the age of four, when his father became his first music teacher. He
holds a bachelor's degree in composition from the California Institute
of the Arts and a master's degree in composition and orchestration
from California State University, Northridge. He is active in
orchestration and teaching, in addition to composing soundtracks for
film, television, animation and video-game projects. Hosharian has
also formed three bands of his own: Vendetta, Hosharian Brothers Band
and Armenian Space Station. In 2009 Armenian Space Station performed
to an enthusiastic audience in Yerevan, Armenia. As keyboardist for
Redemption, Greg has toured Europe and North America.
