STATE PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA TO ORGANIZE NEW CONCERTS

State Philharmonic Orchestra of Armenia is seeking to restore cultural ties
with neighboring countries. The concert of Georgian “Metekhi” Theatre at
“Gabriel Sundukian” State Academic Theatre yesterday was one step to
restoration. It has been the second performance of the Georgian theatre in
Armenia since its creation in 1970. The first concert took place 20 years
ago with the participation of the first generation of the theatre. “We unite
Georgian folk and classic music. This is a new trend in choreography which
is rather interesting, I think”, art director of the theatre Haroldi
Qotzkhishvili said.

Laert Movsisian, head of the State Philharmonic Orchestra, said at a press
conference yesterday that this was not the only project of the Orchestra.
Armenian professional dance groups together with individual dancers will
perform “Eternal Flight” concert at “Hakob Paronian” Musical Comedy Theatre
on May 29. Spectators are expected to enjoy tap-dance, modern, jazz, Latin
American, classic and national dances. “The concert will show that we don’t
fall abreast of other countries”, Laert Movsisian says.

The second arrangement of the Philharmonic Orchestra is the concert of Andre
on the last days of May. Mr. Movsisian assures that all tickets for the
concert were sold out before they took up advertising.

The singer said that he does not fear live performance and said that he
dreams of a law prohibiting phonogram. “That will put an end to cultural
killings”, he said.
