Lucia Kagramanyan 'Panorama Yerevan: On Armenian Lullabies'

Researcher and DJ Lucia Kagramanyan presents a listening session exploring Armenian lullabies, drawing from her ongoing research into archival recordings and diasporic sound histories. Through her radio project Panorama Yerevan, she utilizes material from Armenian public radio, featuring rare recordings that span from folklore to experimental music. Focusing on lullabies from Western and Eastern Armenia, the session examines local traditions and their reinterpretations, including Soviet-era recordings. These songs, traditionally passed down by women, serve as intimate monologues reflecting grief, longing, and daily life. The session combines archival material with spoken context for a multi-layered experience, later available on Refuge Radio.
