Khazer Choir Խազեր Երգչախումբ

The Khazer choir mainly sings Armenian national classical music, especially Komitas. Khazer was created in 2013 in Yerevan by volunteer musicians and young people of other professions. The peculiarity of Khazer is that they sing Armenian national classical music not in the classical European or strictly Eastern way, as it common in Armenian society, but following the laws of simple natural Armenian folklore, as those songs were created, and as Komitas himself taught. The choir carries out voluntary activities in the villages and regions of Armenia. The choir also presented Armenian national classical music in Germany at the Wagner Festival of Young Musicians and in France in cooperation with the Soli-Tutti Choir of Paris 8 University. The choir sings at Armenian wedding ceremonies, makes recordings, concerts, speeches at special events․
