All Of It - A podcast by WNYC

NYC-based Armenian musician Astghik Martirosyan will present her debut album in concert on Sunday, November 19, at National Sawdust. The album, Distance, was written in 2020 as Martirosyan reflected on 44 days of fighting in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh, between Armenia and Azerbaijan. When Martirosyan joined us in the studio earlier this week, we ran short of time, and she was unable to perform her song, 'Spring Is On Its Way,' which was directly inspired by the conflict. We now present that track, here.
