LEBANESE ARMENIAN MUSICIAN TO DEDICATE CONCERT TO GENOCIDE
14:21 * 17.02.15
Lebanese-Armenian violinist Ara Malikyan is going to dedicate one of
his upcoming concerts to the Armenian Genocide.
El periodico reports that the musician will appear before public on
March 25 on the sidelines of Suite Barcelona 2015.
"It will feature the most different works I have performed and authored
in the past 30 years of my career. The oriental trend prevails in my
compositions. And whatever is oriental, normally sounds tranquil. And
there is a difference in what I present," he added.
Twelve musicians will join Malikyan as specialist of the Armenian
music during the concert.
"The centenary of the Armenian Genocide is drawing near. It is a
way of recognizing the historical truth and paying respect to the
1.5 million victims. We, the Armenians, do not need anything. There
are countries which haven't recognized the Genocide. So the 100th
anniversary is a good occasion for doing that," he added.
