Music is an integral part of human identity. We use it to express who we are in the larger communities we live in but at the same time adopt and incorporate music of others that reflect our values and relationships. Whether it is the music of ancient cultures, the music of the Renaissance, or music of the 20th and 21st centuries, if we did not have music, we would create it.
Hear the acclaimed Garni Duo of Hrant Bagrazyan, piano and Suren Bagratuni, cello, perform and experience the identity of composers that reveal themselves.
