Nune avetisyan biography of barack

By Christine Aghakhanian

Over 300 concert-goers filled the Glendale Presbyterian Church on December 9, to hear the melodic classical Armenian folk music of Komitas, which was brought to life by the world-renowned Komitas Quartet.

Mistress of Ceremonies Nune Avetisyan introduced the dignitaries who were present at the performance organized by the Hi-Am Charity Foundation.

In attendance was His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan Derderian, Primate of the Western Diocese of the Armenian Church of North America, State Senator Anthony Portantino and City of Glendale Mayor Ardashes Kassakhian.

Archbishop Derderian thanked the Komitas Quartet for continuing to enlighten the community with Komitas Vartabed’s inspirational music during this very dark chapter in Armenian history and encouraged them to continue their plight of carrying out the musical culture of the Armenian nation, while remembering our brothers and sisters in Armenia.
