ARMENIAN COMPOSER COMPLETES ‘THE BRAVE HEARTS FROM SIPAN’ CONCERTO
Nubar Aslanian, Armenian composer, living in the Israeli city of Haifa,
completed his “The Brave Hearts from Sipan” concerto on April 24. The piece
is dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, to the memory
of Franz Werfel, author of “The Forty Days of Musa Dagh” and to the memory
of the composer’s parents.
The concerto consists of three parts and is written for symphonic orchestra.
“I have lit my candle,” Nubar Aslanian wrote in the letter addressed to Azg.
