Marija Temo will be a guest soloist with the Parma Symphony Orchestra, performing “Tango Fantasy” a work written for Marija Temo by Loris Chobanian that combines the characteristic qualities of both the Argentinean Tango and the Flamenco Tango of Andalusia. This will indeed be a special and momentous occasion in that the composer, Loris Chobanian, will be conducting his own work with Marija Temo performing.
On a personal note: Loris was my undergraduate guitar professor when I attended Baldwin-Wallace College, and I am looking so forward to reuniting with him for this event. A special thank you to Dr. Randolph P. Laycock, Music Director of the Parma Symphony, and Joe Germana, Business Manager.

It is always wonderful to make someone’s wedding day special. I have been invited to offer classical & flamenco guitar and flamenco singing during a wedding ceremony in Columbus, OH this weekend. What a wonderfully, unique idea to be asked to contribute flamenco in this way. I look forward to giving a bride and groom and their guests a memorable wedding.
