YEREVAN. – The Embassy of Sweden in Armenia on Friday will be presenting a concert by world-renowned musicians Hugo Ticciati (violin) and Hayk Melikyan (piano) to capital city Yerevan audience, at the Special Events Auditorium of the Cafesjian Center for the Arts.

The musicians will be performing the pieces by Swedish and Armenian composers, such as Bo Linde, Albert Schnelzer, Harutyun Dellalian, Tatev Amiryan, and Tigran Mansouryan.

“It is the second time we are witnessing the Ticciati-Melikyan Duo in Yerevan, and I am sure the Yerevan audience still carries the great impressions of their first concert in 2010,” noted Alexander Hakobyan, the Artistic Manager of Hayk Melikyan, Honored Artist of the Republic of Armenia. “Back then Hugo was participating in the ‘Gallery of Arts Festival, and since that time we were aiming to repeat the performance of these wonderful artists in Armenia, and I am really happy that the idea was greatly supported by Mr. Marten Ehnberg, Chargé d’Affaires of the Embassy of the Kingdom of Sweden. I also want to express my special gratitude to the Cafesjian Center for the Arts, for the provision of the wonderful Hall to our Musicians.”

Ticciati-Melikyan Duo has been performing in a variety of countries since 2010 and presenting Armenian, Swedish and other prominent composers all over the world.

One of the Duo’s main targets is the 20th century and contemporary music.
