PODCASTS
Our piece 'Sevani Tsorgnorsner'
is the theme music for a podcast series called Voices
on Antisemitism,
produced by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
We're honored to have our music accompany the thoughts and
reflections of such notables as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg,
Nobel Peace Laureate Elie Wiesel, and former U.S. Secretary
of State Madeleine Albright (to name just a few!).

song 'Armenian Wedding Dance' in Nature
