Description

Anoush is an opera in five acts composed by Armen Tigranian (1879-1950) and based on Hovhannes Toumanian's famous poem by the same name.

The first truly Armenian opera, Anoush embodies the ethos of typical 19th century Armenian village life. The setting depicts the habits, customs and traditions of Armenian villagers and dramatizes their conservative mores and strongly held views on honor and love. Though text and music, the composer successfully recreates the lifestyle, character and standards of Armenian villagers, while weaving into it a tragic love story.

This DVD features a performance of the opera at the State Opera of Armenia from 2008.
