Remembering Armand Andreassian
Wednesday, May 3, 2017
Concert at the Armenian Cultural Foundation
In May of 2017, Marash Girl attended (first row seats!) a concert featuring New England Conservatory students -- Canadian/Armenian Eva Aronian, violinist, and American/French Pierre-Nicolas Colombo, pianist. Hosted by The Andreassian Music Fund and the Canadian Women's Club (Canadian Consulate), the musicians, New England Conservatory students, (Violinist Eva Aronian, Pianist Pierre-Nicolas Colombo) played pieces by Maurice Ravel, Johannes Brahms, Fritz Kreisler to name a few. A cocktail reception preceded the concert which was followed by (the concert, not the cocktails) a social hour that included desserts and coffee. An enjoyable Sunday afternoon! And particularly enjoyable for Marash Girl, as the concert was held at the Armenian Cultural Foundation in Arlington, Mass., a foundation established to preserve the collection of her dear, long ago friend, Vahan Topalian.

Armand was always so fun, charming and funny! I remember the most when he used to come to our Christmas Eve party at Maple Avenue - always nicely dressed, as was his sister, Helene. He always brought some delicious food- often “eech “, of which he said his version was the BEST, and I tended to agree! Absolutely delicious.
