PUBLIC HEARINGS FOR NATIONAL ANTHEM OF ARMENIA NOT ORGANIZED

The Armenian chamber and philharmonic band prepares the songs
chosen as the first 5 choices for the national anthem of Armenia,
Gayane Durgaryan, press service head of ministry of culture and youth
affairs told Panorama.am. The authors of the selected songs are Tigran
Mansuryan, Yervand Yerznkyan, Edgar Hovhannisyan, Aram Khachatryan
and Robert Amirkhanyan.

When the songs are ready, they will be presented for public
judgment. According to initial decision, the hearings must be
conducted late August. Today is August 25 but the songs are not
ready yet. It is also not clear what funds will be used to organize
the hearings. Most probably, the competition committee will reach a
cabinet decision. /Panorama.am/

Emil Lazarian: “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
