Cellist Mikayel Hakhnazaryan writes in the introduction of his album ‘Inner Voices’: “When you leave your homeland, you leave behind something very important that is hard to describe in words.

How lucky we musicians are to be able to collect all these precious things into one whole - into music, into melodies that are always with us in our head and heart; melodies that belong to us all, that we can reproduce and relive at any time. By leaving one country you give yourself the chance to discover another world, where new motifs and colours accompany you like a guide, in the search for your own voice and your own inner world."
