Daniel Melkonyan said that he had performed compositions of Haydn, Rakhmaninov and other composers during both stages.

“My mother was the first who was informed about my victory because she was with me, that is first of all my relatives were informed, and later the Conservatory”, noted Daniel.

He told us that this was the third international competition in which the Armenian trumpet participated. Prior to that, he had taken part in the Dubai International Competition of trumpeters.
