In the organizer's words:

ARA MALIKIAN

INTRUSO WORLD TOUR

On April 11th, at Admiralpalast in Berlin, Ara Malikian presents his new tour 'Intruso',

a very personal journey that starts from the anguish of not fitting anywhere to finally

embrace the richness of his multicultural identity and find his home in the whole world

through art and music.

Venue: heater am Marientor

Date: April 09 th 2025

Time: 20:00

In Lebanon, I was not considered enough of a "Lebanese" because I was of Armenian

origin; the Armenians did not consider me enough of an "Armenian" because I was born

in Lebanon; When I settled in Europe, I was not considered "European" because I was

not born in Europe.

This experience was also reflected in my relationship with music. Every note resonated

with the nostalgia of a home that did not exist, a place where I never quite fit in.

However, this condition of being an "intruder" gave me the opportunity to explore and

enjoy fascinating music and cultures, foreign to my own tradition, contributing my own

voice, my multicultural experience.

Thanks to my condition of being an "intruder", I have discovered that the whole world is

my home. My home is in my body and in my soul, an infinite space where identity

transforms and music becomes a universal language.
