Supported by The Amaryan Charitable Foundation: "The Art of Violin Playing" Educational Method is Now Available in Armenian

The Amaryan Charitable Foundation, in partnership with Apricot Capital (founded by Vardan Amaryan) and Balchug Capital (founded by David Amaryan), has supported the implementation of a major educational and cultural project initiated by the Primavera Foundation of Armenia.

For the first time in history, Carl Flesch’s fundamental work, The Art of Violin Playing, has been translated and published in Armenian. This project, implemented by the Primavera Foundation of Armenia, aims to provide Armenian musicians and educators with access to world-class professional literature in their native language.

The work is being donated to musical educational institutions throughout Armenia free of charge. Logistics for the book distribution are managed by the Primavera Foundation, and further details regarding the project can be found on their official website.

The project officially launched on December 24, 2025, with a gala concert at the Aram Khachaturian Concert Hall. The evening featured performances by the Armenian National Philharmonic Orchestra, led by Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Eduard Topchjan, and renowned soloists Maximilian Simon (Germany) and Aram Badalyan (Armenia/Germany).

The first copies of the work have been donated to the Komitas State Conservatory of Yerevan, the Gyumri Conservatory, and the Gyumri Music College. Donations to other music schools and colleges across Armenia will continue throughout the first half of 2026.

As part of this initiative, which is funded by the Amaryan Charitable Foundation, Apricot Capital, and Balchug Capital, the distinguished German violinist and editor of the latest edition of The Art of Violin Playing, Maximilian Simon, was invited to Armenia. He will conduct free master classes for young Armenian violinists.

Through this comprehensive program, the Amaryan Charitable Foundation aims to support the development of the classical violin school in Armenia. The foundation seeks to enhance the quality of music education and foster the professional growth of future generations.
