The State Youth Orchestra of Armenia (SYOA) started its concerts
within the framework of the Al Bustan International Festival by the
performance of "Norma" opera by Vincenzo Bellini. The Youth Orchestra
has been invited to perform in Lebanon as the official orchestra of
the Al Bustan International Festival for the second time.
Speaking of the Youth Orchestra Gianluca Marciano, the conductor and
the artistic director of the Festival said: "My first impression was
fantastic! First of all the orchestra arrived here incredibly well
prepared as usual. You have wonderful musicians, they are active and
professional, not just prepared but they have will and wish to do the
best possible for the performance. I was also surprised by the fact
that being a symphony orchestra, they can perform and understand the
flexibility of the opera performance, which is a completely different
way of playing. Beautiful musicians, always in a good mood and open for
the cooperation with the conductor. Can't imagine a better atmosphere
to start working again here, in Al Bustan."
Within the framework of the Festival the SYOA will present another four
concerts, performing compositions by Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky,
etc. The concert dated on March 10 will be headed by Sergey Smbatyan
and dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
