Yev O Phe partners the classical guitar, violin, bass, accordion, bouzouki, mandolin, and keyboard, the distinct sounds of the band's vocalists, with colorful and warm exotic arrangements to bring a refreshing, and long-awaited, sound to Armenian music.

Organ accompaniment by Ms. Susan Shamamian. Twenty solo melodies, odes and sharagans-hymns from Holy Liturgy, Feast Day ceremonies and special church services. Booklet insert includes translation and brief elucidation of each song.

It is believed that no other musical instrument is able to convey the emotions of the Armenian people so honestly and eloquently as the duduk and Jivan Gasparian is the foremost living duduk virtuoso.
