Գինեձօն-Book Launch. Guest Speaker is Author Hachig Kazarian with an introduction by Prof. Barlow Der Mugrdechian.
Silenced for over one hundred years, the Western Armenian music brought to America by the first Armenian immigrants has become an integral part of Armenian culture in the United States. Western Armenian Music: From Asia Minor to the United States examines the many facets of Western Armenian music, and how it has been neglected due to the Armenian Genocide of 1915 and the deleterious feelings left upon the Armenian people.
Hachig Kazarian was born in Detroit, Michigan and is a retired secondary instrumental music educator with 46 years of teaching experience. He received his professional credentials from the Juilliard School of Music, where he earned a B.S. and M.A. degree in clarinet performance. He also attended Eastern Michigan University, where he received an M.A. degree in Music Literature/Ethnomusicology. Kazarian has performed Western Armenian music for many Armenian churches, societies and patriotic organizations throughout the United States.
Prof. Barlow Der Mugrdechian is the Berberian Coordinator of the Armenian Studies Program and general editor of the Armenian Series of The Press at Fresno State.
