On May 8, the General Assembly of the World Federation of International Music Competitions was held in Italy. It drew out in 2 significant cases regarding the Aram Khachaturian International Competition.
Firstly, according to the unanimous decision of all the members of the meeting, in 2016 the specialties of the Aram Khachaturian International Competition will be added by a new one, the “conducting” (until now the contest was held on the piano, violin, cello). Moreover, the 2016 General Assembly of the Federation will be held in Armenia. That’s mean we are going to host in Yerevan the most important event of the organization, which counts 115 members on 6 continents today.
We kindly remind you, that the Aram Khachaturian International Competition was admitted as a new member of the World Federation of International Music Competitions in 2013, thus becoming the first Armenian member ever joining this more than prestigious musical family.
It should be noted that the Aram Khachaturian International Competition is organized by “Aram Khachaturian” Cultural Foundation, Ministry of Culture and Yerevan State Conservatory.
