I launched my violin career with a First Prize at the National String Competition in my native Yerevan, Armenia. Now based between Paris and Los Angeles, I perform regularly with the Orchestre National de France and the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, while also pursuing chamber music projects.

Over the years, I have appeared on many of the world’s most prestigious stages, including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Philharmonie de Paris, the Berlin Philharmonie, the Musikverein, and the Elbphilharmonie.

My work also extends into the film and recording industries. I have contributed to the soundtracks of major productions such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Spider-Man, X-Men, The Hangover, and Men in Black. I have collaborated with a wide range of internationally renowned artists, including Barbra Streisand, U2, Adele, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Seal, Earth, Wind & Fire, Paul McCartney, Michael Bublé, and Céline Dion.

My work has also extended into the film and recording industries, where I have contributed to soundtracks for major productions and collaborated with a wide range of internationally renowned artists. Working across such diverse musical environments deepened my understanding of how sound shapes human state, focus, and emotion far beyond performance.

Alongside my concert career, I have always felt drawn to bringing music into places where it is rarely heard — children’s hospitals, adult care facilities, and orphanages in Paris, Los Angeles, and internationally. Performing in these environments profoundly transformed my relationship with music. I witnessed how sound could calm, stabilize, and connect people in moments of fear, illness, or isolation, often without words or explanation.

These experiences revealed something essential to me: music is not a luxury or an elite pursuit — it is a human resource. In these settings, music was not about excellence or evaluation, but about presence, regulation, and human connection. This stood in contrast to the perfectionism and exclusivity that often surround classical music, where sound can become something to admire rather than something to receive.

This shift in perspective became foundational to everything I do today.
