First Friday at the Hawai‘i State Art Museum

First Friday in April continues the Hawai‘i State Art Museum's cultural journey with Partners in Time.

Partners in Time plays a mix of Near Eastern (Armenian, Turkish), Balkan (Macedonian, Greek), and Middle Eastern music, with some original tunes and jazz fusion thrown into the mix. The band incorporates Improvisation into many tunes, a practice common to both Balkan/Middle Eastern music and jazz.

Joining Partners in Time are two Master Musicians visiting from New York. Souren Baronian is an Armenian - American musician / composer with a mastery of several instruments, jazz and near / middle eastern music. Also born with Armenian roots, and from New York Haig Manoukian of New York, who plays the oud (a fretless 11-string Middle Eastern instrument, similar to a lute), has had an ongoing musical collaboration with Souren Baronian for close to 40 years.
