A weekend of music! Friday night I had the pleasure of attending the concert of the Armenian Navy Band, truly an outstanding performance, just like Raffi mentioned. Saturday night I went to the Opera House and saw Mozart Requiem with the Serenade Chamber Orchestra and Armenian Philharmonic Choir. Then last night, I went to the jazz club again to see the band �Cactus� perform as I was really impressed from the previous time and boy am I glad I went! Not only were there a bunch of cool people at our table but also I spotted John Hughes from AIM and asked him to join our group (he stayed with us the whole evening), as well as meeting some cool Diasporans visiting Hayastan. Then to everyone�s surprise the piano player from The Armenian Navy Band (don�t know his name) joins the band and starts playing the piano. What topped the night and made it a really special evening was when Arto Tuncboyaciyan from the Armenian Navy Band appeared and after being there for not even 10 minutes, couldn�t wait any longer, stood up and he too joined the band. It was such a thrill seeing him jamming with the band, smiling the whole time and having a ball. Only in Armenia! It truly was amazing seeing all these talented musicians together in a tiny cozy club. If only I had my camera with me!
