ABOUT ME:
Ashot Dumanyan was born and raised in Armenia where he started his journey as a Violinist at the tender age of 6 years old. Recognized for his visionary talent as a young adult, he was chosen to receive a scholarship to attend Yerevan's Tchaikovsky Music School. After graduating, he further mastered his knowledge in music at Komitas State Conservatory of Yerevan as a teacher's assistant while earning a Master of Music in Violin Performance.
After completing his formal education in 2010, Ashot spent a few years internationally touring with Armenian State Symphony Orchestra where he performed classical masterpieces at premier entertainment venues. In 2013, Ashot moved to NYC where he played violin for 2 years with world-renowned Shen Yun Performing Arts and conducted group classes for orchestra members before relocating to California.
Ashot's extensive education and experience inspires him to pass on his knowledge and passion to students seeking an enriching musical journey.
