“There such a sense of joy, even ecstasy as she plays.” This is how NY1’s Stephanie Simon describes the Armenian-American concert pianist Kariné Poghosyan’s performances. 

Praised for her “Bewitching Detail and Thunderous Power” (New York Music Daily), the award-winning powerhouse pianist will present a one-night-only tribute to her beloved compatriot ARAM KHACHATURIAN (1903-1978), in honor of the composer’s 120th Anniversary this year. 

The concise 45-minute program is comprised of two solo works - the vivacious Toccata and the Ms. Poghosyan’s own solo transcription of the delicate Lullaby from the ballet Gayaneh. The grand event of the evening will be the performance Khachaturian’s iconic Piano Concerto in D-flat Major, for which Ms. Poghosyan will be joined by her long-time colleague, Maestro Jason Tramm and the MidAtlantic Philharmonic Orchest
