Info zu The Komitas Legacy: Armenian Piano Trios

Soghomon Soghomonian (18691935) took the name Komitas (or Gomidas) when he was ordained a priest in 1894; a year later he became Komitas Vardapet (doctor of theology) one of the two names by which he is known to history. The other is father of Armenian music, since he collected thousands of songs from his compatriots, his fieldwork preserving and identifying the accent which makes the works of Armenian composers readily identifiable as these piano trios prove: one twentieth-century classic and three new works, one of which completes the circle by recasting six of Komitas own folksong arrangements.

Trio Aeternus:
Alexander Stewart, violin
Varoujan Bartikian, cello
João Paulo Santos, piano




Trio Aeternus
Three classical musicians; an English violinist, a Polish pianist and an Armenian cellist recently decided to form a Piano Trio. All three are great friends and at one time or another had performed with each other but never as a Piano Trio. A unified desire to explore this vast and magnificent repertoire finally bore fruition and in 2013 Trio Aeternus was formed.

Alexander Stewart a Graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama is the Concert-Master of the “ Orquestra Sinfónica Portuguesa” in Lisbon. The Armenian Cellist Varoujan Bartikian has been performing the cello as a soloist since the age of 10 and joined the Gulbenkian Foundation Orchestra in 1989 where he is now Principal cello. Pianist Lucjan Luc who studied at the Katowice Music Academy in Poland with the internationally acclaimed Piano Professor Andrzej Jasínski as well as the outstanding composer and pianist Eugeniusz Knapik, also lived many years in Portugal and has since performed as a soloist and chamber-musician all over Europe At present Lucjan Luc is based in Spain. Both Alexander Stewart and Lucjan Luc first met in Poland in 1986 where both were studying in Katowice later they performed many times together in England Spain and Portugal where they met and became. great friends with Varoujan Bartikian. True friendship is eternal as is great music thus the choice of the name “ Aeternus”.

Três músicos clássicos; um violinista inglês, um pianista polaco, e um violoncelista arménio decidiram recentemente formar um trio com piano. Além da amizade que os une, tinham já actuado uns com os outros, mas nunca os três juntos. Um desejo comum de explorar um vasto e magnífico repertório encontrou finalmente uma forma de expressão quando em 2013 o Trio Aeternus foi oficialmente formado. Alexander Stewart diplomou-se pela Guildhall School of Music and Drama, em Londres, e é o actual concertino da Orquestra Sinfónica Portuguesa. Varoujan Bartikian é violoncelista solista desde os dez anos de idade e ingressou na Orquestra Gulbenkian em 1989,onde actualmente é 1º Violoncelo Solista. Lucjan Luc estudou na Academia de Música de Katowice, na Polónia, com o famoso professor de piano Andrzej Jasínski e com o compositor e pianista Eugeniusz Knapik. Radicado actualmente em Espanha, viveu vários anos em Portugal e apresentou-se como solista e músico de câmara por toda a Europa.

Alexander Stewart e Lucjan Luc conheceram-se na Polónia em 1986, onde ambos estudavam em Katowice. Tocaram várias vezes juntos em Inglaterra e Espanha. Em Portugal, conheceram o violoncelista Varoujan Bartikian e tornaram-se grandes amigos. A verdadeira amizade é eterna como a música, ideia a partir da qual derivaram o nome do grupo, Trio Aeternus.
