Narek Hakhnazaryan - Sollima, Lamentatio

[@alisonlazaroffsomssich7306]

Unbelievable rendition of this tonight in Hobart. In my 30 years playing with the TSO I’ve never been moved so much by an encore. Narek Hakhnazaryan is in my opinion the greatest living cellist. A supreme musician. I find it difficult to put into words...

[@simonturk9071]

I went for the Rococo and came out with so much more. Absolutely amazing.

[@thatfreestyleguy]

Ok, the greatest alive might be a bit 2 much, but agreeing on that hes a great cellist.

[@cakevaljean]

Saw him yesterday performing with the Utah Symphony! I had no words to describe how talented and spirited he is; we clapped for so long he encored with this song!

[@adelasussman3838]

Yes, my SLC friend just told me about him and had me look him up on youtube! He's amazing!! Fortunate for you that you were able to see him live!!

[@TheRealWeavie]

Electric. Saw this performed live in Detroit and just was amazed.

[@Anna-yq2vg]

Con grande piacere, dopo un anno, lo riascolto ed è un portento!

[@benjamincuevaseninde]

-- Une lamentation qui s'élève dans le chaos des cris, des violences et des douleurs. Comme une prière, une incantation qui implore que tout ce désordre cesse. Un archet qui coupe les cordes, une voix qui recouvre les blessures. Poignante, vibrante & puissante interprétation. --

[@philliplee7844]

OMG. I wonder if the composer himself could have imagined his Lamentatio performed with such deeply felt emotion. Some may criticize the vocalizations but they miss the point.... the cellist and his cello are partners in this lament for the genocide of the Armenian people.

[@CarolJLevin]

Yes, it is a duo.

[@NarekHovhannisyan]

America doesn't deny its atrocities as it do Turkey. Hope you can see the difference.

[@NarekHovhannisyan]

What a nonsense do you speak, I assume you are a turk and totally brainwashed. In 1915 besides Armenian Genocide there were also Greek and Assyrian genocides and your state still denies it. Stop falsify the history, in 1918 that was Turkey which attacked Armenia, see Battle of Sardarabad. The battle not only stopped the Ottoman advance into the rest of Armenia but also prevented the complete destruction of the Armenian nation.

[@NarekHovhannisyan]

"But the little Armenians, France, Germany and Vatican call it a genocide." Sure ? - The Council of Europe recognized the Armenian Genocide on May 14, 2001 - On April 15, 2015, the European Parliament backed a motion that calls the massacre a century ago of up to 1.5 million Armenians by Ottoman Turkish forces a genocide - In 1997 the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) passed a resolution unanimously recognizing the Ottoman massacres of Armenians as genocide. - 45 states out of 50 of the United States, have recognized the events as a genocide. - The term genocide was coined in 1943 in response to Armenian Genocide, and to the mass murders in Nazi controlled Europe. - In 1985, the United Nations Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities received a report (The Whitaker Report), in which the Ottoman systematic massacre of Armenians during the World War I was cited as meeting the criteria for the UN definition of genocide and as one of the genocides of the 20th century. The report was received and noted by a resolution at the 38th session of the Sub-Commission in 1985.

[@NarekHovhannisyan]

You are an ordinary genocide denier without any argument. Armenian genocide is a historical fact, the only country which should recognize the genocide is Turkey and first of all it is important for Turkey for creating a healthy society. All the problems and among them the question of Kurds (which were also guilty in genocide of Anatolian Christians) are a huge affliction for modern Turkey. You have no other way besides accepting and repentance.

Ձեր մոտեցումը այս ստեղծագործությանը բոլորովին այլ է։Շնորհակալություն մեծ հաճուք պարգեվեցիք։

[@edmmusic08]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@winstonblend]

Thank you , so deep so many emotions, I am crying

[@JonZSmith]

This is more than beautiful and great. I have to describe it "heavenly"

[@amydanielle578]

Saw Narek perform this piece this past Thursday along with the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra. Incredible experience.

[@nickdavis965]

Was that concert the same one he performed the tchaikovsky rococo variations?

[@avoshahinian3129]

Fabulous, priceless, outstanding, a new star is born.

[@Geenorina]

I had the privilege of seeing this on Sunday at St Davids Hall Cardiff.. truly amazing

[@mariairisfly]

I think this piece is applicable to our times in dealing wit Covid19 in 2020. A call for compassion, a lament on the poor souls that will suffer... then the restlessness of being quarantined....then the work, work , work of all who are keeping us going, grocers, nursed and doctors...then the tedium ... then the prayer again... then.... Thank you Narek, you transported music beyond its borders to all our hearts and souls. And thank you Giovanni for downloading this from the spheres.

[@annasargsyan5294]

So deep and emotional performance and great technical skills. Amazing work. Շնորհավորում եմ Հախնազարյան ջան, նորանոր բեմեր, կշարունակեմ Ձեր անունը տարածել մինչև հայ հեռուստատեսությունը ու մամուլը ողողված չլինեն Ձեր մասին նյութերով։ Արժանավոր արվեստագետ եք։

[@SuperShanook]

Absolutely outstanding performance, I feel so incredibly lucky to be one of the few to have seen this piece of art live.

[@johntasker5335]

Firstly this is an outstanding technical performance. Secondly here is a young artist of vigour and passion; long may that last, and when he matures he will have so much to share both in terms of technique and musicianship. In the mean time long may he revel in the vigour of youth.

[@TheManaryan]

Ինչքան ազատություն կա Նարեկի մեջ!!!

[@jon0645]

Saw Narek perform this, as an encore, on Sunday in Cardiff.....Spellbinding. Tragic,and beautiful,at the same time. Masterful playing.

[@Geenorina]

I too heard this on Sunday, I asked manager to announce the name of the piece and the composer over the tannoy . I had tears rolling down my cheeks .. had elements of Kronos Quartet .

[@babettebecker7606]

Wahnsinn toll!

[@veletza707]

Это просто феноменально! I'm in love. . . Он самый красивый и талантливый музыкант))

[@22bomd]

[@valentinamorozov7341]

[@emildegas4213]

Just saw him yesterday perfom this live at Barcelona, it was breathtaking.

[@martinarier5362]

Saw him perform this tonight 😍 absolutely breathtaking.

[@alessiaandrei1822]

fantastic

[@ildikonagy-olah1231]

Gestern begeisterte er das Pumlikum in Pécs. Er ist zwar noch sehr jung, ist aber schon ein phantastischer Künstler und behersscht sein Instrument ungleublich.

[@Anna-yq2vg]

Grande! Nessun altro aggettivo può rendere quello che ho sentito, grazie.

[@katexy7179]

I saw him once and I sat in the first row- needless to say I teared up and everyone was up on their feet after he ended, the applause lasted for minutes! He's really amazing!

[@danielapribagu2473]

Il suo modo di suonare arriva dritto al cuore, emozionante!

[@MCOGroupNews]

I had the pleasure of seeing this amazingly talented young man performing this live...for "free" at my university. I was passed out for most of the orchestral performance (not that they were boring) until this guy came on...wow.

[@jordimatthews6950]

Navysealsnake he came to my school aswell, was amazing when he did this piece

[@MCOGroupNews]

@@jordimatthews6950He blew me away, and gave a performance I would never forget lol

[@SophieDeViolin]

Narek jan you kept the audience breathless during your this performance! Yesterday’s concert at the Philips Center of Performing Arts at University of Florida will never be forgotten! Waiting for your next concert in Gainesville :) Proud of you!!!

[@rainerobkircher]

Just two words: beautifully insane! Chapeau!

[@ericonmusic]

holy shit amazing performance

[@MCOGroupNews]

I'm not much of a classical music nut, but I do enjoy the rock/metal genre and understand that there are many parallels and similarities between the classical/metal genre. I saw this performed live as part of a requirement of my music appreciation class and I was so impressed, my jaw literally dropped. Metal af and inspiring.

[@shirist8380]

I am the opposite. To me it is just a way of playing Jazz - something quite different from classical music. I love it as I love Jazz - in one of my favourite Jazz clubs OK, in some of my favourite classical music halls I would not like to listen to it; there I prefer Beethoven, Haydn, Boccherini, Elgar etc.

[@monicapavaloi5968]

I think it’s the best cello song I’ve ever heard!!!!❤

[@baibaandersson9454]

Amazing. Super talented. Definitely delicious. Absolut beautiful sound and. Lines.thankGod for this Video.
