Rusden Street Armidale
In this time they have released three duo albums, completed three Australian national tours and several international tours through Europe, USA, UK, Asia, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates. They have performed with symphony orchestras and at international festivals in Australia and Europe.
Although regarded as Australia’s finest classical guitar duo performing much of the standard guitar repertoire, their passion is to expand this repertoire through new arrangements, their own compositions and commissions from contemporary composers. As a result the Grigoryan brothers’ performances include forays into genres including Latin, jazz, folk & contemporary music. Fueling this diversity is the brothers’ joy of improvisation, which, when combined with their technical virtuosity adds a new and exciting dimension to concerts.
