Twelve-year-old French-Armenian musical prodigy Raffi Arto is heading towards global recognition.
Raffi recently participated in the American Tours rock music festival in Paris.
He also accompanied the 76-year-old Queen of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson who, just like world-renowned American rhythm and blues saxophonist Big Jay McNeely, was astonished at the talent of this very young Armenian musician.
Below is an abridged version of NEWS.am STYLE’s exclusive interview with Raffi Arto.
Raffi, you are involved in several projects, correct?
Yes; they are several. But I can inform about the details a little later. I give concerts during this time. The best thing is that I am holding talks with the Disney Channel for a new project.

Are you preparing for a major performance?
There are several ideas about which I will keep silent for now. [But] there is an opportunity to perform with Charles Aznavour.
Anything new on releasing an album?
My new album is due out in September. I am also preparing to make a video clip.
