|---|---|---|---|

Compositionally and stylistically, this is the neo-symphonic genre, which is still little formed in the world musical culture. It can be attributed to a more understandable neo-classics , while thus highlighting independent multipart works created in a digital environment, but with the sound of natural orchestral instruments and allowing for instrumental eclecticism (the use of modern beats, ethnic sound and vocal elements). They can live independently, not just like a movie soundtrack.
An excursion into the philosophy of the topic
Singularis (from Latin "singularity") - at the same time, what is beyond the point of no return, then where there are no more familiar laws and hopes, there is NOTHING, and at the same time it can be the beginning of ALL, the point of the first sound, the first vibration, rebirth.
The Universe gives the right to Peace after the War. But only if we do not cross the line irrevocably.
Reason and Love - only these principles in humanity do not allow it to disappear forever beyond the "event horizon", not to disappear in a black hole of self-destruction.
“How many victims does it take to understand the futility of war? How many tears do you have to shed to understand the value of the world? ”. An allusion to the philosophical and mathematical model “How much sand does it take to create a mountain of sand?” how the display of the unique properties of non-unique phenomena acquires the meaning of the drama of the Human being.
A singularity is an event that defies description and evaluation, but at the same time exists. And now, in addition to crises and wars, there are things that should make humanity think in an adult way and get out of the “childhood” of irresponsible consciousness. A technological singularity is coming - a hypothetical moment, after which technological progress will become so rapid and complex that it will be beyond comprehension.
The Neo-symphony consists of 4 parts:
1--Singularis.Beyond the event horizon.
2--Singularis.Creation.
3--Singularis. Ocean of Life.
4--Singularis. Nova solution.
2. Illusions over
Instrumental composition with elements of symphony, vocal gothic and ethno-mix.
 |  |  |
|---|
A person gets up from the chair of the “matrix of stereotypes” and crosses the border of illusion to freedom. Ethno-wind instruments prepare for this transition, awaken the deep memory of the origins. The second and third movements are rhythmic and dynamic.
The choral part in Latin sounds either “Tu solus Deus” (“You are one God” or “Only you are God”), or “T օ solus Deus” (“To the only God”), which makes you think about right and responsibility a person for his path and development.
3. Reborn Memory
An instrumental composition with soul-touching sounds of the Armenian duduk, elements of ethno-vocal.
Images taken from open sources: Museum of Armenia in Moscow, Museum of the Armenian Genocide in Yerevan, Aurora Foundation.
The idea is to show that the revived memory is the right to the unity of Humanity. Ethnic elements and vocals were used with the phrase “Քելե” (Qele) (with Armenian “Come on!”, “Get up!”). This work was created to the topic of the Armenian genocide, but has a broader interpretation.
4. Rain of Hope
Instrumental composition with piano melody.

6. Ray Dance
An instrumental composition with strong, rhythmic beats.
Fusion Dance with an unusual combination of rhythmic beats and Armenian endlessly touching for the soul duduk.
7. Pomegranate Bloom
A subtle "oriental" melody that creates a sensation of openwork and ornamental pomegranate bloom.
There is allusion in music and in the video for the cult work “The Color of Pomegranate” - it's by famous film creator of Armenian origin Sergei Parajanov.
8. Stars of Masis
Instrumental composition with ethnic ornament and elements of classical vocals.
A philosophical composition with a beautiful ethnic ornament about the essential search for the sacred sense and the lost starry cradle.
At the end of the composition, a short vocal turn is used in Tigran Jager's performance (text - Nadezhda Gerashchenko):
Space soul over the mountains
Starlight in my hands
We are like the captains
Who've lost the sacred lands
Excursion into the history of the name
"Masis" (Մասիս) is in Armenian "Ararat". If you go a little deeper, then this is Big
Ararat, there is also Small - "Sis".
The view of Mount Masis (Sis, Ma-Sis) suggests that the name Sis can be associated with the meaning of the word "Sis", "Mother's life-giving relic" / "կաթնաբեր մասունք մարց" /. In addition, the component "ma" in Indo-European languages, including in Armenian, makes sense to "generate", that is - mother / մայր /.
The name of the mountain "Ararat" spread throughout the world through the Bible. Like a mountain located in the center of the country Ararat (Urartu), where the descendants of Noah found refuge and were saved during the Flood. And around Mount Ararat-Masis, after the flood, the beginning of a new human civilization was laid. These versions about the name of the mountain (in general, there are many of them) - according to the articles of the historian Angela Teryan.
When in 1829 the Armenian writer Kh. Abovyan together with the German scientist F. Parrot climbed to the top of Masis, he brought snow from there in a bottle, which he kept as a sacred relic.
Geopolitically, the mountain is located now outside Armenia, on the territory of Turkey.
The text at the end of the composition was not intended to reflect the geopolitical aspect, but inevitably acquired a double meaning.
9. Sevan's Dreams
Instrumental composition with ethnic ornament and piano melody.
A serene melody similar to the dream of the ancient mystical Lake Sevan in Armenia. The composition is filled with piano sounds against the background of a calm but confident beat rhythm, and is also decorated with elements of ethnic string instruments.

10. View from the city of Tigran (Տիգրանի քաղաքի լանջերից)
Rock ballad
Rock ballad and clip
in the style of a road movie .
The song is in the author's own vocal performance in Armenian on the verses of the famous Armenian politician Nikol Pashinyan.
Victory is, first of all, the victory of the spirit and faith in one's own strength, and the most terrible defeat is the forgotten Essence and the extinguished light of the Heart. All other defeats are ashes.
Original text
"Տիգրանի քաղաքի լանջերից"
Տիգրանի քաղաքի լանջերից,
Հորիզոնն է ծփում անսահման,
Դարեր անց մենք այստեղ ենք նորից,
Մենք կանգնած ենք հեռվին հանդիման։
***
Մեր սարերը, մեր բախտը, մեր լացը,
Մենք ճեղքել ենք, հաղթել ենք նրանց,
Հորիզոնը այստեղ, մեր դիմաց է,
Թիկունքում `մեր արտերը կանաչ։
Մեր հայացքը այլևս ազատ է,
Ոչ մի պատ չի բանտում միտքը մեր,
Հեռուները մոտիկ, հարազատ են,
Մենք զինվոր ենք, հաղթող ենք ու տեր։
***
Այս հողի մեջ ոգուս զարկերակն է,
Այս հողով իմ արյունն է հոսում։
Ես պատռել եմ զոհի հին կտակը,
Հաղթողի նոր խոսքեր եմ խոսում.

Translating to English (subscript)
"From the slopes of the city of Tigran"
I look into the distance from the City of Tigran,
The horizon is infinitely far away
Through the ages and great plans
We will find a single source.
CHORUS:
Our mountains and our luck
Our screams and voices
We will walk through the fogs and crying.
We will protect our native fields.
The look is free and the mind is not constrained.
There are no walls or chains for you.
The heart is given to those who are so dear.
Become a winner forever.
***
On the ground with the pulse of our spirit
The whole truth of the fire will spread.
We tore off the will of the victim,
Speaking only victory words.
CHORUS:
Our mountains and our luck
Our screams and voices
We will walk through the fogs and crying.
We will protect our native fields.
The look is free and the mind is not constrained.
There are no walls or chains for you.
The heart is given to those who are so dear.
Become a winner forever.
