➡️ “Luys i Luso” is the seventh album by Armenian pianist Tigran Hamasyan. As part of the commemoration of the Armenian Genocide, the work was performed in 100 churches around the world. The album is arranged for piano and voices, and features the Yerevan State Chamber Choir with conductor Harutyun Topikyan. Tigran Hamasyan is a pianist and played the piano in the recording for the album. Unlike Hamasyan's previous albums, the music is more heavily inspired by the Armenian folk style and draws from Armenian sacred music. The tracks on the album are varied and include developments of fifth-century sharakans to modern-day hymns.
