The ancient Shushi Fortress will turn into an open-air stage tonight.
Avet Terteryan’s “Fire ring” opera will be staged here on the eve of
Artsakh’s Republic Day. For the second year in a row the Shushi
panorama will be used as a natural decoration.
The final rehearsal was held Sunday. This evening people will have an
opportunity to watch the opera about “war, peace and love” as the
author once described it. The author of the initiative considers that
the atmosphere in Shushi corresponds to the spirit of the opera.
Famous opera singers, the Symphony Orchestra of the Academic Theater
of Opera and Ballet after Alexannder Spendiaryan, the ballet troupe
and other performers are engaged in the initiative that will be held
under the high auspices of First Lay Rita Sargsyan.
The Artsakh premiere of the “Fire Ring” is dedicated to Avet
Terteryan’s 85th birth anniversary.
