YEREVAN, MAY 10, ARMENPRESS. The Aznavour Foundation has issued a statement according to which neither the Foundation nor the Aznavour family act as initiator, organizer or supporter of the tribute concert which will take place in Yerevan, on May 26.

ARMENPRESS presents the text of the statement:

“In response to numerous requests and letters, the Aznavour Foundation and the Aznavour famlily announce that they do not act as initiator, organizer or supporter of the tribute concert which will take place in Yerevan, on May 26th.

Recently, various public announcements have been made which attempt to associate the above mentioned concert to the Aznavour Foundation and the Aznavour family.

The Foundation and the family consider it unacceptable to misinform the public and once again underline that they do not participate in the above mentioned concert organization”.

On the eve of the 95th anniversary of the legendary artist Charles Aznavour, many tribute events are initiated and organized throughout the world. This way, all these events’ organizers celebrate Charles Aznavour's art and life, as well as contribute to the mission of the Aznavour Foundation.

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
