we have lost many things and we continue loosing things, which, by the
way, will bring to the collapse of our nation,’ singer Anna Mailyan
said at news conference. She is surprised by those saying that `stop
talking about Komitas’. `No, it’s not enough. Komitas’ creations have
saved us,’ the singer said.

Singer Emma Petrosyan, who was also present at the news conference,
said that today youth thinks a mass of words is enough to create a
song.

The singers say there are talented singers also. Regarding the
classical music Anna Mailyan said that it remains as it used to. `Some
dynamics is needed. We don’t want to glaze at experience of
abroad. Academic music is our power,’ she said.
