SUMMARY:Abril Bookstore presents BOGHOS SHAHMELIKIAN'S NEW BOOK: DAWN OF ARMENIAN POP MUSIC
DESCRIPTION:Author and member of the Five Fingers Band\, BOGHOS SHAHMELIKIAN will present the newly translated English edition of his book\, DAWN OF ARMENIAN POP MUSIC on THURSDAY\, JULY 26\, 2018 at 7:30pm at ABRIL BOOKSTORE – 415 E. Broadway\, Glendale\, CA. Author will be introduced by Harout Arakelian. Admission is free with reception to follow.\n\n \n\n\n\nDAWN OF ARMENIAN POP MUSIC narrates the evolution of the post Genocide contemporary Armenian popular music in the Diaspora\, commonly referred to as pop music. The Armenian word for it would be estradayin. Starting from the early 1960’s a host of Armenian singers and musical bands appeared on stage in Lebanon using for the first time non-traditional instruments such as guitar\, percussion drum-sets\, electronic organ (keyboards)\, saxophone and the like ushering the Armenian music onto a new era away from its Ottoman influences. The ‘invasion’ of these musical bands lasted until the mid-1970’s and tapered off with the onset of the Lebanese Civil war having altered the popular Armenian music. His narration makes for a fascinating reading.\n\n\nBOGHOS SHAHMELIKIAN was born in Beirut. He is a retired musician who has played with many bands and in many countries but primarily with the Five Fingers Band. He attended Nshan Palanjian Jemaran and graduated from Mekhitarian High School. He resides in Los Angeles with his wife and son and is a regular literary contributor to “Aztag” Daily and “Hairenik” Weekly.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by Abril Bookstore.
