MARIAM KHARATYAN:
Armenian-Norwegian pianist Mariam Kharatyan performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician and her performances being described by critics as a rare musical experience, her playing as sensitive, natural, and free as if the music has been created at the moment of the performance, dazzling the audiences with her interpretations.

Always eager to expand her horizons within pianism, challenging the accepted traditions of interpretations, Kharatyan has worked from 2015-2019 on artistic research doctorate (Ph.D.) project “Armenian Fingerprints: interpreting the piano music of Komitas and Khachaturian in light of Armenian folk music”, admitted in Norwegian Artistic Research Programme and published on researchcatalogue.net (2019). The same year with the album release recital in Sentralen, Oslo, she released two albums – Khachaturian, Chamber Music (2019) in Simax Classics: this album was a collaboration with Adam Grüchot, Stig Nordhagen, and Leonardo Sesenna; the second album – Komitas, Shoror (2019), included the solo piano works of Komitas Vardapet and Armenian peasant songs in new interpretations on piano with Armenian folk musician Vigen Balasanyan, on blul and duduk, and was published with Grappa Musikkforlag. Both albums of Komitas’ and Khachaturian’s music have received warm resonance among the listeners and enthusiastic reviews from international critics.

KOMITAS:
Komitas (1869–1935) was an Armenian priest, musicologist, composer, arranger, singer, and choirmaster, who is considered the founder of the Armenian national school of music and recognized as one of the pioneers of ethnomusicology. After having studied music at the Frederick William University in Berlin, Komitas "used his Western training to build a national tradition". He collected and transcribed over 3,000 pieces of Armenian folk music, more than half of which were subsequently lost and only around 1,200 are now extant.
