The exceptional album SACRED CHORAL WORKS includes premiere recordings of works by the distinguished Greek composer Alkis Baltas, written since 1978 to 2010. The carefully selected album’s repertoire consists of six compositions of contemporary vocal music, presented from various perspectives. These compositions enable singers to present various techniques, a rich, dynamic palette, a vocal musicianship, an excellent recitation, above all, honest and deep emotions, being an expression of an intellectual and personal reflection on performed music. The Armenian Chamber Choir (ACC) was established with the generous sponsorship of “Vatche and Tamar Manoukian” Benevolent Association in October 2000. Robert Mlkeyan, a “Movses Khorenatsi” medal recipient and an Honored Art Worker of Armenia since 2008, was invited to occupy the post of the Artistic Director and the Principal Conductor of the Choir. Under Mlkeyan’s leadership, the ACC was recognized as the best chamber choir of Armenia in a short span of time. In 2008, the ACC acquired the status of a state (public) choir and was renamed into State Chamber Choir of Armenia (NCCA).
