The Yerevan Youth Orchestra performed at the Al Bustan International Festival of Music and the Performing Arts at the Emile Bustani Auditorium, presenting a program built around two monumental works of the classical repertoire.
Under the baton of Sergey Smbatyan, the concert featured the acclaimed Choi sisters — Hayoung Choi and SongHa Choi — in Brahms’ Double Concerto in A minor, followed by Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 in C minor.
Bringing together virtuosity, musical dialogue, and orchestral power, the performance offered a compelling interpretation of two masterpieces, uniting emerging international talent and the orchestra’s artistic energy on one stage.
