Lamnth
Приєднався 12 гру 2023
Lamnth-a new violin and cimbalom duo founded by Lilit Hartunian and Nicholas Tolle-presents their first full season of concerts in 2023-2024, with newly commissioned works by Maya Bennardo, Darcy Copeland, Marti Epstein, Erin Graham, Sid Richardson, Golnaz Shariatzadeh, and Niloufar Shiri. Selected for a 2023 Avaloch Farm Music Institute residency, Hartunian and Tolle rehearsed and workshopped their first commissioned work, Mischa Salkind-Pearl's Lines and Traces of Desire, for a recording to be released in 2024.
Hartunian and Tolle, long established members of the Boston new music community, are frequent performers with the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, A Far Cry, Emmanuel Music, and Sound Icon, among other groups. They also frequently perform together with The Ludovico Ensemble, founded by Tolle, including a duo concert in March 2022 which led to the launch of this project.

SAAR in Farsi means "pain." In the past few years, I have endured and come to understand the many different dimensions of pain-not physical pain, but the kind that is felt viscerally that enters your body like ink moving through water; the kind of pain that is felt in dreams. This pain, however, has been a catalyst for growth and healing, and has led to a deeper understanding of my own resilience and transformation. - Niloufar Shiri
