Found Sound Nation
The Sound Bridge program brings together musicians from Armenia, Türkiye, and Georgia to co-create original music and develop creative approaches to dialogue.
The Sound Bridge program is a creative and cultural exchange program that fosters artistic dialogue, collaboration and exchange between musicians from Armenia, Türkiye, and Georgia. Through creative residencies, original media creation and public presentations, Sound Bridge provides a platform for musicians to develop innovative, collaborative works that draw from their cultural traditions while forging new connections with their environment and one another. Since its inception in 2023, the program has brought together 24 artists from Armenia, Türkiye, and Georgia, encouraging creative dialogue and mutual understanding through the medium of music and the sonic arts.
Sound Bridge is led in partnership with the U.S. Embassy Yerevan, and was hosted in the summer of 2023 and 2024 in the Svaneti region of the Republic of Georgia by the Lakhushdi House of Song.
