“The sounds of Ancient Armenia reinvented for the 21st century.” — Tigran Mansurian
Celebrating the release of their new album Songs of Wisdom, Armenia’s internationally acclaimed Naghash Ensemble will embark on a North American tour in March 2025, performing in eight cities across the U.S. and Canada. Tickets are available now, from $30+, for their appearance at the Berklee Performance Center on Saturday, March 15 at 8 p.m.
Based in Yerevan and led by Armenian-American composer John Hodian, the ensemble combines the earthy spirituality of Armenian folk song, new classical music, and contemporary post-minimalism with the energy of rock and jazz. Featuring three exceptional female vocalists and some of Armenia’s finest instrumentalists on duduk, oud, dhol, and piano, their performances bring new life to the sacred texts of medieval Armenian mystic poets Mkrtich Naghash and Kostandin Erznkatsi. Drawing from this rich literary tradition, the new music from their upcoming album will be at the heart of their North American tour.
