/PanARMENIAN.Net/ EdgeArt Entertainment, Inc. (USA) developed a series
of musical applications, imitating sounds of Armenian folk
instruments.

Artashes Sevada, program developer, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter
that iDuduk, iShvee applications are already available for users all
over the world, while iZurna, iBlulj and iDhol will be in Apple
Internet-store in the nearest future. `Music by eminent Armenian
musicians such as Djivan Gasparyan (iDuduk), Ararat Petrosyan and
Norik Manukyan (iShvee) is also included in the applications. That’ll
be our last series of applications with Armenian folk instruments. But
very soon we are producing iShaku, imitating Japanese folk
instrument,’ he added.

As iPhone is constantly connected to Internet, the program provides
downloads of continually changing slides about Armenian artists,
sculptors, religion and Armenian alphabet as well as Armenia’s
attractions.

`That’s a way to popularize Armenian culture, starting from the Middle
age up to now. Purchasing a popular product, users will also have a
chance to discover Armenian history and culture,’ Sevada said.

Music performance on iPhone through applications such as iBand, Wivi
Band, Guitar, iAno, Pocket Guitar, etc. is getting popular across the
globe. Orchestra concerts, where music is performed on iPhone along
with real musical instruments, are not a seldom event
