Welcome to an evening in House of Sweden filled with Swedish National-Romantic Music, performed by Armen Shaomian, pianist, and Janet Hopkins, mezzo-soprano. Renowned Swedish pianist Armen Shaomian and special guest mezzo-soprano Janet Hopkins will present a lecture-recital on the music of Swedish composers Wilhelm Peterson-Berger and Wilhelm Stenhammar.
