Lena Chamamyan – In Support of Breast Cancer Hope
20 October '18 at 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm
Lena Chamamyan returns to London for a full-length charity concert in support of Breast Cancer Hope, a vital organisation dedicated to funding research to improve the lives of women with breast cancer.
An award-winning singer, song-writer and multi-instrumentalist from Syria, Chamamyan revives Armenian and Arabic folkloric songs with modern styles, creating an unforgettable link between oriental classic compositions and contemporary world music.
Her musical arrangements and vocals provide a unique perspective of her strengths and experiences, skillfully incorporating jazz, fado, as well as Latin and African music, and even opera elements. Singing in Arabic, Armenian, Syriac, English, French, and Italian, Chamamyan has come to be renowned as one of the leading singers of her generation and as one of the most innovative voices to emerge within contemporary Syrian music.
