Tigran Hamasyan
Tigran Hamasyan ((アルメニア語:Տիգրան Համասյան); born July 17, 1987) is an Armenian jazz pianist. He plays mostly original compositions, which are strongly influenced by the Armenian folk tradition, often using its scales and modalities. In addition to Tigran's folk influence, he is much influenced by American jazz traditions and to some extent, as on his album ''Red Hail'', by progressive rock. His solo album ''A Fable'' is most strongly influenced by Armenian folk music. Even on his most overt jazz compositions and renditions of well-known jazz pieces, his improvisations often contain embellishments based on scales from Middle Eastern/South Western Asian traditions.
==Early life==
Hamasyan was born in Gyumri, Armenia. His ancestors were from the Kars region.〔(Facebook post on July 10, 2015 ) "...in Kars, the region where all my ancestry comes from."〕 His father was a jeweler and his mother designed clothes.〔 At the age of three he began to play melodies on his family's piano, and he went to a music school from the age of six.〔 As a young child, he dreamed of being a thrash metal guitarist.〔Lewis, John (October 24, 2013) ("Tigran Hamasyan, the Pianist Giving Jazz an Armenian Twist". ) ''The Guardian''.〕
He studied jazz from the age of nine, then tried to incorporate local folk melodies into jazz-form improvisations when in his teens.〔 At this stage, Hamasyan was influenced by Armenian composers Arno Babajanian and Avet Terterian.〔 Hamasyan, together with his parents and sister, moved to Yerevan when he was around 10,〔("Tigran Hamasyan Trio". ) Monterey Jazz Festival. Retrieved October 25, 2013.〕 and then to California when he was 16, where, as of October 2013, he continues to live.〔
