Season Finale: Composers Forum Sunday, June 09, 2024 6 PM This year’s season finale is inspired by an artwork from Tanja Bechtler’s private collection titled "The Defender of Nature against the Madness and Insanity of Nature." This sculpture of a fiery red dragon was conceived by Master HORA®, Atayan A.V. in 2017 and produced by Elena Supanova. In a nod to Atayan’s Armenian heritage, the concert's repertoire will feature selections that celebrate Armenian culture, including works by early 20th-century Armenian composer and musicologist Komitas for string quartets and excerpts of his poetry, adding a poignant touch to the performance.
