Well, this is the first song ever written for me and it means a lot to me. Music was composed by my best friend, pianist and composer Hayk Melikyan and I wrote the lyrics. It is a very important song as I finally honestly express myself through the music. I am almost 32 and I have just recently started to sing, passed a long way in my very diverse career/life (philosophy, psychology, web design, marketing, banking,etc)... What I am sure about is that I really needed and wanted to say what I say in this song..."I give up to hide, because I am taking high..." 

I am deeply grateful to CANTUS Production and Zara Petrosyan for the support and, what is the most important, understanding!

*Alto Giove*
Nicola Porpora, Polifemo, Acis's aria:

ACIS 
Alto Giove è tua grazia 
E tuo vanto il gran dono 
Di vita immortale 
Che il tuo cenno 
Sovrano mi fa.

Ma, il rendermi poi quella 
Già sospirata tanto Diva 
Amorosa e bella 
È un dono senza uguale 
Come la tua beltà.
