In the course of decades the singer, who was honored with the national
title of "Armenian nightingale" brought glory to the Armenian song art
with her unique voice. She was the best performer of vocal composition
both of European and Armenian composers.

With Gohar Gasparyan’s name are connected achievements of Armenian
music art, which have already become classics. With her work she
proved that perfection of human voice is endless.

Leaving the great stage, for a long time she has been working in the
Yerevan Conservatory, passing secrets of her unique art to younger
generation, which continued the mission of presenting the Armenian
music art on the Armenian and world stages.

I express my condolences to Gohar Gasparyan’s relatives, admirers of
her talent and I am sure that the deep sorrow for her death will be
compensated by her unforgettable works".
