The life and career of legendary French-Armenian singer Charles Aznavour will be presented in a one-act ballet. In an interview with “Armenpress”, ballet master of the Alexander Spendiarian National Academic Theater of Opera and Ballet Rudolf Kharatyan informed that the Theater is rehearsing for a new ballet.
“The songs of Charles Aznavour will lie at the core of the “La Boheme” ballet, which will be a 40-minute ballet presenting Charles Aznavour’s career. The ballet will include the most famous songs. Although all of Aznavour’s songs are famous, it was very hard to make selections,” Rudolf Kharatian mentioned. According to the ballet master, the ballet will present the entire course of development of Aznavour as an artist, how he met Edith Piaf and what he went through.
According to Kharatian, the Theater will present the ballet in the fall of 2016.
