Ruben Gazarian

The new music director of the Georgisches Kammerorchester (Georgian Chamber Orchestra) Ingolstadt, Ruben Gazarian, celebrated a highly acclaimed debut in the first subscription concert of the season on January 15, 2015. The conductor and his musicians dedicated the concert, under the motto “Swiss Made,” to the four Swiss composers Paul Juon, Fabian Müller, Ernest Bloch, and Arthur Honegger. They were joined by violonist Kamilla Schatz and cellist Pi-Phin Chien. “Such programs have to be possible, even more so as they allow the GKO to gain recognition beyond our region… Gazarian and the orchestra could not have left a more distinctive mark on their debut—in every respect.” (Donaukurier) A recording of the concert will be released on CD in May 2015 (Ars Produktion)—“already now, an enriching document.” (Donaukurier)
