The Aram Khachaturian International Competition is held in Yerevan from June 6 to June 14 every year starting from 2003. For the first time it was implemented within the framework of events, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of great composer.
The competition is aimed at identifying talented young musicians in three specialties – “Piano”, “Violin” and “Cello.”
