Arno Babajanyan, Bronze sculpture memorial near State Philharmonia, Yerevan, Armenia
The statue depicts composer Arno Babajanyan seated at a grand piano made of Ukrainian basalt, positioned at Tumanyan and Teryan Streets intersection.
Created by sculptor David Bejanyan and officially unveiled in July 2003, the monument underwent modifications following public feedback about its initial design.
The memorial stands near the concert hall named after Babajanyan, where his compositions combining Armenian folk elements with classical music continue to resonate.
The monument, funded by Ruben Hayrapetyan for 50,000 dollars, serves as a central meeting point for visitors exploring downtown Yerevan.
The statue features intricate details in bronze, showing the composer at his instrument with adjusted proportions after initial criticism of exaggerated finger lengths.
