The miniatures of Komitas have the merit of being able to condense in a few minutes all aspects of Armenian musical culture. Each of them is an invitation to travel, allowing us to discover the soul of a country through its music, both joyful and nostalgic. Thanks to his arrangements for string quartet,
Serguey Aslamazyan gives these miniatures their nobility and amplifies their emotional impact without distorting the message they convey. This message of peace and hope is also the one that Eugenie Alecian wishes to transmit to us with Un quatuor armenien, a powerful work narrating a country that never stops dancing and singing despite the intense pain
"It must be added that the composer's daughter, Coline Alécian, founded the Akhtamar Quartet in 2014 and as a result, the expected commitment to both the music on the disc and its sentiment is keenly shown throughout in these finely nuanced performances which bring out every ounce of feeling the music seeks to express."
