Events Description
The ARC Ensemble and students of the Glenn Gould School explore Armenian works composed before the breakup of the Soviet Union and Armenian independence – captivating and evocative music unknown in the West. Included on the program are arrangements of Armenian folksongs for string quartet, a compelling Cello Sonata by Avet Terteryan, and seductive piano miniatures by Alexander Spendiarian and Arno Babadjanian.
The multiple Grammy Award nominated ARC Ensemble comprises the senior faculty of The Royal Conservatory’s Glenn Gould School, with special guests drawn from the organization’s most accomplished students and alumni. It is among Canada’s most distinguished cultural ambassadors with recent appearances in Los Angeles, New York and London’s Wigmore Hall. The research and recovery of music suppressed and marginalized under the 20th century’s repressive regimes remains its focus and a growing number of works have now rejoined the repertoire.
“As always with this ensemble, performances could hardly be bettered in terms of execution and commitment.” (Gramophone)
