This is a visual and musical piece that aims to re-create a world that no longer exists. Using images of artifacts, the piece recreates—through music and through live and animated visuals—worlds that we only know now from the fragments that time has allowed to survive. Composer Vache Sharafyan composed the music based on visuals by Kevork Mourad.
Performed by Zulal Armenian A Cappella Trio, Gevorg Dabaghyan, duduk, Shane Shanahan, percussion.
This piece was commissioned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and premiered at the museum on November 2, 2018.
