Amran Gisher
“Amran Gisher” is one of the delicate, beautiful and popular love-lyrical songs of Armenian folklore. Armenians had a tradition to light a bonfire in the late evenings in summer and autumn, talk around it, share their joys and sorrows. Thanks to this tradition, folk songs were also refined. Even children participated in this process, including Hayrik Muradyan, who saved the song “Amran Gisher” from oblivion. The first name of the song is “Khorot Kharsnik”, but among the people, it is much better known by the name “Amran Gisher”.

Duration of Passion
“Duration of Passion” is a story about the intense and fleeting nature of love. It explores the emotions and struggles that come with the realization that passion has given way to hatred. As the melody develops, the piano and cello play in harmony, building in intensity and passion, protagonist realizes that the passion that once fueled their love has now turned to hatred. The melody then slowly fades away and the short duration of passion is emphasized, showing how quickly love can fade and turn into something bitter.
