ARMENIAN FOLK TRIO TO PERFORM MARCH 29
Worcester Telegram, MA
March 27 2014
There's a haunting, evocative quality to the songs that are sung so
exquisitely by Zulal, an a capella vocal trio devoted to Armenian
folk music.
Zulal's singers -- Teni Apelian, Yeraz Markarian and Anaïs Tekerian --
have been performing together since 2002. "There's so much in this
genre. We're yet to extinguish our sources," Apelian said.
"Zulal, A Folk Journey" at 4 p.m. March 29 in Holy Trinity Armenian
Apostolic Church, 635 Grove St., Worcester, will include Armenian
folk songs from different regions, both historic and present-day.
Similarly, the music is "very ancient and still very contemporary,"
said Apelian, who grew up in Worcester.
The songs can be light, while with pieces based on work you can almost
"hear the spinning wheels," she said. Also, however, "Armenian culture
in general has a heavy melancholic line, which you hear a lot in the
music," Apelian said. Tickets are $30. (508) 852-3328.
