The Ballade in E-flat minor was written in 2021. Though it is written for solo piano, I had intended to write it for piano and orchestra, and may make a version of it for this ensemble in the future. The piece is about 8 minutes long. I hope you all enjoy it 🙂

This is my "Soliloquy for Duduk No.1", composed "in Memory of the Victims of Artsakh and Armenia in the 2020 War". It is my first ever soliloquy composed for the Armenian folk instrument called "duduk", a double reed woodwind instrument. My soliloquy is for the duduk in A. I dedicated it to the memory of the victims of Artsakh and Armenia in the 2020 war with Azerbaijan, a bloody war that lasted from September 27 to November 9, 2020. May the memory of those innocent victims and of those of all unjust wars be blessed. Any constructive feedback from a competent duduk player happening upon this post would be greatly appreciated.
