‘Requiem’ by Tigran Mansuryan cordially accepted in Germany
“I’ve worked on my piece of music – “Requiem”, dedicated to the victims of Armenian Genocide, for 10 years. This piece of text has been sung many times, and I found my own key to it – I’ve joined Latin language and native Armenian singing.
I’ve displayed the universal pain of Armenian people, as well as that of my own family,” Armenian composer Tigran Mansuryan said in a news conference.
On November 19 Chamber Philharmonic Hall of Berlin hosted the world premiere of “Requiem” by Tigran Mansuryan dedicated to the victims of Armenian Genocide.
German media outlets say the “Requiem” has been cordially accepted under warm applauds. Armenian Ambassador to Germany, accompanied by his wife, was also present at the premiere, which, the composer says, has delighted hi greatly.
