About Arshak II

Arshak II is the first Armenian classical opera, composed by Tigran Chukhajian to a libretto by Tovmas Terzian, written first in Italian and then translated into Armenian by the librettist. It was completed in 1868, and parts of it were performed in the following years. It was staged in full for the first time in 1945 at the Yerevan Opera Theater, albeit with a new libretto written by Armen Gulakian, rearrangement of parts of the score, and changes to the instrumentation; correspondingly, music historian Nikoghos Tahmizian calls this version a new edition of the opera. Both librettos are based on the historical accounts of the fourth-century Armenian king Arshak II, written by the classical Armenian historians Movses Khorenatsi and Pavstos Buzand.
