MORE FREE CLASSES AT MUSIC SCHOOLS

The Yerevan Municipality will allocate 10-11 percent more money for the
capitals’ music schools this year. But the music schools of Yerevan are at a
loss, as most of the parents prefer piano to all other instruments for their
children and there are less and less students at the sections of folk
instruments and those of strings and brass.

The Municipality is going to create more free classes at those sections to
attract students.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
