Night Ark is an instrumental jazz quartet formed in 1986. The members are American-Armenian Ara Dinkjian, Turkish Armenian Arto Tunçboyacıyan, American-Armenian Armen Donelian and American Marc Johnson. The quartet's most famous piece is "Homecoming"; a famous version thereof set to lyrics in Greek is Dynata, first sung by Eleftheria Arvanitaki. Homecoming was also the theme for the successful satirical Israeli television series 'HaHamishiya HaKamerit' ("The Chamber Quintet").
