The world asks us to keep moving, keep achieving, keep performing. This evening asks something different: slow down, breathe, listen, not only to the music, but to yourself. For years, ARMINÉ believed her job was to sing beautifully. Now she sings to connect. That shift shapes this program. It opens in the opera house with Mascagni's Santuzza, Verdi's Eboli, Bizet's Carmen, and Massenet's Charlotte, before moving through Armenian folk song, and a Piazzolla duo for trumpet and piano (Patrick Oats and Hank Xiang), Schumann/Liszt Widmung for piano (Hank Xiang) into music ARMINÉ wrote herself, note and word: My Dreams, Fire, Anamorphosis at Midnight, and more. Not a performance. A conversation. You don't have to arrive as a better version of yourself. You simply arrive as you are.
