This is a Center for World Music event hosted at Mingei International Museum.
Experience the living pulse of Armenian folk culture through a captivating performance by Lernazang Ensemble, a collective of musicians, dancers, and ethnomusicologists dedicated to preserving and reimagining Armenian music and dance. Featuring the evocative sounds of duduk, oud, dhol, and voice, alongside Armenian dance, the ensemble brings to life the music and movement of Western Armenia (Anatolia) and the Southern Caucasus. Their approach aims to revitalize Armenian folk heritage by blending deep cultural research with striking artistic expression.
