The Norwegian saxophone player, Jan Garbarek, who had an early breakthrough into the elite of modern jazz in the 60’s, due to his extensive cooperation with Keith Jarrett, continues his success with a collection of Armenian music.  Garbarek and the Hilliards, a vocal band from England, together recorded the Officium Novum album. Four tracks on Officium Novum feature music by Komitas a priest and composer considered the father of Armenian classical music. The Hilliard Ensemble was invited to record some of Armenia’s traditional church music, the chant which goes back to the fourth or fifth centuries.
