Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra Associate Principal Cellist Armen Ksajikian began his professional career at the age of twelve with the National Philharmonic of Abkhazia in the former Soviet Union. Since his arrival in the United States in 1976, he has established himself as a vital contributor to nearly every aspect of the musical life of Los Angeles. He is admired for his artistry and beloved for his generosity and wonderful sense of humor.
 

Violist Zach Dellinger is pursuing an Artist Diploma at the Colburn Conservatory under Paul Coletti. He completed a Bachelor's Degree at the Eastman School of Music, where he won its Concerto Competition and performed the Walton Viola Concerto with the Eastman Philharmonia. Zach studied with Donald McInnes at the Music Academy of the West for three summers, worked with Pinchas Zukerman at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, Canada, and with Itzhak Perlman, Donald Weilerstein, and Paul Katz of the Cleveland Quartet at the Perlman Music Program. This year, Mr. Zach performed Herold en Italie with the Torrance Symphony under the baton of Maestro Frank Fetta.
 

The high artistic quality of the offerings is assured by Live At The Lounge Classical Series Artistic Director and pianist Yana Reznik, well known to Southland aficionados, who trained at the Manhattan School of Music under Phillip Kawin and earned a Master's Degree at the USC Thornton School and the coveted Professional Studies Certificate at the Colburn Conservatory with renowned pianist John Perry.
 

The Venue
 

The Classical Music Series of Live At The Lounge in Hermosa Beach is a new concept for Southern California. New Yorkers have embraced the concept with great enthusiasm at Le Poisson Rouge in Greenwich Village. The weekly Classical Music Series at Live At The Lounge harkens back to music-halls in the time of Mozart and Beethoven, where classical music was enjoyed in a fun, informal setting. Feel free to applaud between movements whenever you're inspired to do so.
 
Thanks to Mike Lacey, the forward-looking founder and President of the famed Comedy and Magic Club (where Jay Leno performs every Sunday evening), Southern California now has a new weekly classical music series where premier established and rising young performers can be enjoyed in an attractive and intimate club setting. Enjoy classical music in a listening-room setting (not background music) accompanied by fine dinners (optional) and/or drinks.
 
Live At The Lounge (adjoining The Comedy & Magic Club) is a beautiful 90-person theater that serves dinner expertly prepared from the freshest ingredients available in Southern California before and during all performances (click here to see the menu). Arrive early and enjoy a delicious dinner with friends and make new ones. Stay after and socialize with the artists.
