Music editions from Armenia
It is already 140 years since the moment when the young violinist Leopold Auer received the invitation to the St. Petersburg Conservatoire. In due course he became famous as an outstanding violinist, teacher, soloist of the Russian Imperial Court, as well as an ensemble performer, one of the founders of chamber ensemble class at the Conservatoire. His influence on the development of musical culture is noticeable far beyond the boundaries of St. Petersburg - the fact that may be illustrated by the creative work of our elder contemporary, Professor of the Yerevan Conservatoire, and the music editions from Armenia sent to our Conservatoire as a donation.
