Tunchboyachyan had appeared on more than 200 records in Europe before arriving in the United States, where he went on to work with numerous jazz musicians, including Chet Baker, Marc Johnson, Al Di Meola, and Joe Zawinul, as well as performing semi-regularly with Paul Winter and the Earth Band.
[11] Armenian Navy Band's next album was Türkçe Sözlü Hafif Anadolu Müziği (English: Light Anatolian Music With Turkish Words), recorded in the winter of 2001.
[12] Tunçboyacıyan's 2001 album Aile Muhabbeti was used as soundtrack in two films: Hemşo (2001) and Mon père est ingénieur (2004).
They found common ground in shared Armenian backgrounds and a passion for sonic explorations in creating music that claimed to be "completely new."
The project was put together by Arto and the Armenian Navy Band, who joined their talents one more time in the fall of 2006 for Part Two.
[11] There is a hidden track on the album Toxicity by System of a Down where Arto contributed with the band to a traditional Armenian Church hymn, "Der Voghormya (Lord Have Mercy)".
[15] In February 2011, Arto Tunçboyacıyan, as a band member of The Paul Winter Consort, won the Grammy for Best New Age Album for Miho: Journey to the Mountain.
