The Quartet will also perform in tandem with the famous conductor and violinist of Armenian descent George Pehlivanian at the Yerevan National Theater of Opera and Ballet. On April 21, the guest performances of the Quartet in Russia and France will start.

“Culture and art are 2 powerful instruments which help present the historical events to the larger public including the international community more easily. As a leading telecommunication operator, Beeline attaches special importance to assisting events dedicated to the Armenian Genocide Centennial.

It’s important that such cultural events contribute to enhancing awareness of the youth and foreigners about the Armenian Genocide, its international acknowledgement and prevention of such tragedies in future”, noted Beeline Armenia CEO Andrey Pyatakhin.

We are grateful to Beeline for consistent and long-term sponsorship as well as Tashir Group for the support of our musical team, in particular, during the international contest in October 2014, when we won the first prize for the country”, noted the Mirzoyan Quartet musicians.
