19:40, 4 March, 2015
GLENDALE, MARCH 4, ARMENPRESS: The Hamazkayin Music Committee members
would like to urge you not miss a unique, exquisite concert they are
presenting called "Music from Armenia". Dedicated to the Centennial of
the Armenian Genocide, it will take place on Sunday, March 15 at the
Glendale Presbyterian Church, reports Armenpress referring to Asbarez.
As Armenian communities around the world continue to seek healing and
reparation for their tragedy and losses, this event is yet another
way to comfort our souls and strengthen our spirit.
The Canadian duo of pianist Patil Harboyan and cellist Heather Tuach
will perform works by Armenian composers Alexander Arutiunian, Arno
Babajanian, Haro Stepanian and Komitas. The works to be presented in
the program are recorded in their CD, recently released by Divine
Art Records in England, and is called "Music from Armenia". This
publication received great reviews and generated wonderful enthusiasm
amongst both Armenian and non-Armenian musical societies. It helped
the acknowledgement and the showcasing of great Armenian music.
Recipient of two Canada Council for the Arts grants and a grant
from the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Quebec, Patil Harboyan
was awarded first prizes at the Margo Babikian Piano competition,
the Armenian Allied Arts Association and also won recognition at the
Southwestern Youth Music Festival in California. In 2004, she won
first prize at the Trois-Rivières Symphony Competition, along with
the Radio-Canada Prize.
Harboyan attended the prestigious R.D. Colburn School of Performing
Arts in Los Angeles, and was a recipient of a Philiban Scholarship.
She holds a Doctorate in Musical Arts from Stonybrook University, where
she studied with Gilbert Kalish on a full scholarship. Her previous
teachers include Richard Raymond, Marc Durand and Jean Saulnier.
