    More awards for pianist Arghamanyan



    Nareh Arghamanyan, the 19-year-old Armenian pianist who won the grand
    prize Tuesday night in the Montreal

    International Musical Competition, collected two other awards at the
    competition gala concert on Thursday: the $5,000 prize for the best
    performance of the imposed piece, Fastforward by Alexina Louie, and
    the $2,500 Prix du Public, chosen by public ballot and dedicated to
    the late Quebec pedagogue Yvonne Hubert.

    Other prizes announced were the $7,500 Joseph Rouleau Award for best
    artist from Quebec (Marie-Hélène Trempe) and the $5,000 award for best
    Canadian (Vancouver-based Sergei Saratovsky). The annual competition
    next year will be dedicated to voice.
