The rousing Haikian Chamber Choir performed as part of “Echoes of Our Ancestors” at the Greek Theatre on Sept. 12. The Choir, together with dozens of other artists, presented Armenian history through music and performance.  

“The show was a living testament to our culture and heritage,” said Choir member Anahit Karapetyan.

  The highlight of the evening was “Hayastan” (Armenia) to which the entire audience of approximately 5,900 people rose to their feet applauding and singing along.  

Said Karapetyan, “It was a powerful display of unity and hope.”
