Lilit Pipoyan

Lilit Pipoyan belongs to that narrow circle of modern Armenian musicians, whose works present an alternative to the traditional folk, classical, spiritual and pop music. Born in Yerevan in a family of artists, she graduated from the Spendarian specialized music school and later on studied architecture, receiving her Ph.D in the Theory and History of Armenian Architecture.

Lilit's compositions are based on Armenian poetry and folklore. She is especially fond of medieval secular songs, for which she creates modern arrangements or new melodies when the originals are lost, with distinctly Armenian character.
