Playing With Purpose: Chamber Orchestra of Karabakh defines statehood with music

By Arpi Harutyunyan

Karabakh’s statehood is underscored by the two-year existence of its own chamber orchestra, say musicians who proudly make up the 23-piece body.

Until 2004, Karabakh had never had its own chamber orchestra.But two years ago, the Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU) initiated the orchestra’s creation and assigned its leadership to artistic director and conductor Gevorg Muradyan.
