The recital featured budding pianists Timur Balametov, Kamillah Obaidy and Leyla Mammadli. The students’ musical performance included songs from J. S. Bach, R. Schumann, K. Czerny, E. Grieg, M. Clementi and many more.

Following the children’s delightful performance, Nargiz Jeffus and our special guest singer Kamiyar made us travel to our Land Of Fire, Azerbaijan, with the words and notes of Tofig Guliyev, Azerbaijani composer, pianist and conductor mixed with folk Azerbaijani songs filling the air and stopping time for an instant. 20150524_Collage_notes
