Yerevan Nights | Armenian Jazz Fusion Concert with Master Tar player Miqayel Voskanyan and MVF Boston Band

August 2, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$25
Miqayel Voskanyan is visiting Boston to participate in Silkroad Global Musician Workshop at the New England Conservatory. He plays the Tar, an 11-string long-necked string instrument from the lute family used by many cultures and countries including Armenia, Iran, Turkey, and Georgia.

His MVF Band in Armenia draws on polyphonic roots, global rhythms, jazz’s tight grooves, and improvisational play, and includes bass, keyboards, percussion and other traditional Armenian wind instruments, sax or clarinet.

The MVF Boston Band features the following musicians:
Miqayel Voskanyan – Tar and singing
Maxim Lubarsky – piano/keyboards
Shahan Nercessian – bass
Martin Haroutunian – folk instruments formerly in MusAner
Alek Surenian – percussionist with Armadi Tsayn

“Improvisational Armenian tar player, composer and vocalist creating a distinctive sound in jazz and world music. He melds tar into multigenre compositions in both solo and group performances pushing the boundaries of Armenian music.”
