A Fable is the fourth album by Tigran Hamasyan released in February 2011. [8] [1] [3] [9] Tigran uses traditional Armenian hymns, Armenian poetry and Armenian folk music as the basis for the tracks on the album. [10] [4] [11] The album also draws influences from Jazz, Rock and Pop. [5] [7] Tigran in an interview said that he chose the name of the album "... because each composition tells a story ... [and] people can relate to fables because they are both simple, yet deep." [3] [11] [7] He only used his first name on this album's release, but has used his full name in subsequent albums. [12]
