Alis Sirakyan

Accompanist (piano) · 1956–1963

Accompanist (piano)

Alis Sirakyan was the choir's first accompanist, from its founding in 1956.

In 1959, because of her age, she handed over the piano at the choir's rehearsals to Petar Vitanov and stayed on as accompanist of the vocal studio until 1963; she later settled in Paris. The book therefore records her work in two stages – with the choir (1956–1959) and with the vocal studio (1959–1963).

From Stoyan Boychev's book (2006), pp. 273, 14–25.
