Students and lecturers of the State College of Pop and Jazz Art are
against its unification with the State College of Culture.

Lecturer of the State College of Pop and Jazz Art Anahit Mazmanyan
told journalists that the Armenian Minister of Culture made a statement
on the two colleges’ unification.

Levon Sahakyan, a lecturer of the same college, added that the problem
is not the management. “An institution with 30-year history can unite
with a college established only 6-7 years ago,” he said.

The State College of Pop and Jazz Art was established over 30 years
ago. Nune Yesayan, Gayane Hovhannisyan, Syuzan Margaryan, Tatevik
Hovhannisyan and other representatives of the Armenian pop music are
among its graduates.
