Armenian Wedding Songs: Open Masterclass
An open masterclass dedicated to traditional Armenian music, focusing on wedding songs. The Armenian wedding ritual encompassed an entire world of symbolic and colorful customs, each with its own song: decorating the tree of life, applying henna, dressing the bride and groom, leading the bride out of her home, praising the groom and his horse, welcoming the couple home, blessings, dance songs, and comedic pieces. Sing along with Khazer Choir under the artistic direction of Ani Navasardyan. Admission is free.
