Good evening everyone, team, teacher
my name is Estefani Arias and today I will not
talk to you about a band, but about a musician
and composer.
his name is ara malikian
is a Lebanese-born violinist of Armenian
descent.
Ara Malikian was born in 1968 (one thousand
nine hundred sixty-eight.) into an Armenian
family, survivor of the Armenian genocide, and
grew up living in bomb shelters.
He has won numerous competitions of
worldwide prestige.
He has played his violin in the best concert
halls of the world in more than forty countries
in the five continents.
Ara Malikian: the rock star of the violin
learned to play in a basement, taking refuge
from the war.
Ara Malikian started with the violin at a very
young age, pushed by his father, a violinist.
In an interview he said: "I saw how music and
art changed people's moods, gave hope, gave
joy. We forgot all the sorrows, all the wars and
bombs."
He learned to play the violin from his father
who was very strict.
Long work sessions sculpted a prodigious
musician and allowed him to leave Lebanon to
go to Germany at the age of fifteen to perfect
his violin.
In 2016 (two thousand sixteen) I saw one of
his videos on you tube. At that moment my
life changed, and I became interested in his
music and the transformation he was giving.
