There is immense beauty in its stark rocky countryside on the Caucasus Mountains with orchards and vineyards providing pops of color while historic cities and monasteries perch alongside them or in temperate rain forests. Explore the ancient fortresses, monasteries and liturgical traditions of the Armenian Orthodox Church while taking in the natural beauty of this unique and stunning country.
In 1994, Classical Movements arranged on behalf of the Library of Congress a large delegation of Armenians to the USA. They continued to work in the country, cultivating connections with local musician. In 2011, these experiences facilitated a historic tour for the Yale Alumni Chorus to Turkey, Georgia and Armenia in which they performed concerts with the Little Singers of Armenia, the Armenian State Philharmonic Orchestra and the Paros Chamber Choir with soloist Yeghishe Manucharian.
