On July 22 at 19:00, an outdoor concert featuring the Armenian National Philharmonic Orchestra and Green Rock will take place in Dilijan, dedicated to Dilijan and its residents.
The Philharmonic reports that this unique cultural evening will be held near the city lake of Dilijan. Residents and guests of the city will enjoy works by one of Armenia's most beloved composers, Arno Babajanian. Admission to the concert is free for everyone.
The aim of the event is to make culture an important component of community life and to contribute to the development of Dilijan's cultural environment.
According to Katerina Danekina, Executive Director of Green Rock, sustainable urban development is not just about infrastructure and investments; it is primarily about people, communities, and culture.
«Dilijan has exceptional potential to become one of the most important cultural, educational, and tourism centers in the region, and Green Rock's vision is to support this journey by creating environments that add value to the city and its residents. We want Green Rock's areas to become places where people not only work, relax, and live, but also meet, enjoy art, and create new ideas».
Commenting on the initiative, the artistic director and chief conductor of the Armenian National Philharmonic Orchestra, Edward Topchyan, noted: «Dilijan has always been one of the most important musical centers in Armenia. It is no coincidence that the Creative House of Composers named after Edward Mirzoyan is located here, which has been a source of inspiration for renowned composers for decades. We are very pleased that through the collaboration of the Philharmonic Orchestra and Green Rock, we are contributing to the revival of these wonderful traditions by presenting high-quality music in the heart of Dilijan. We have included Arno Babajanian's beloved songs in the concert program, which is also symbolic, as he often visited and created in Dilijan. Babajanian's musical legacy is an invaluable treasure of Armenian culture, distinguished by its exceptional lyricism, boundless warmth, and unique combination of folk and contemporary harmonies and rhythms. It lives in the hearts and memories of generations. We hope this evening will provide unforgettable moments for the people of Dilijan».
