SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA OF KARABAKH
Azat Artsakh - Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR)
13 Sept 04
The Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU) undertook a program
of financing the two-year work of a group of musicians from Yerevan
headed by conductor Gevorg Muradian in Nagorni Karabakh. The group will
greatly contribute to the establishment of the symphonic orchestra
of Nagorni Karabakh. The group arrived in Stepanakert on September
10. We had an interview with conductor Gevorg Muradian. He has been
the conductor of the symphonic orchestra of TV and radio for 18 years,
up today the conductor of the philharmonic orchestra and choir of
Armenia, chief conductor of the symphonic orchestra of Yerevan,
choirmaster of a number of church choirs. â^À^ÜMy old dream was to
visit Artsakh, work here and be useful to this land. Today is a happy
day for me as I am surrounded by supporters. We already have a contract
for two years and we have a great mission to accomplish here. 12
musicians arrived with me, two will join us a little later. We are
grateful to the government of Karabakh and the AGBU due to whom this
excellent opportunity of creating a chamber orchestra in Karabakh was
provided. We have liberated our lands, however we must also create
culture, develop spiritual life in this country. I consider this
a far-reaching strategic step. On Tuesday we shall meet with the
prime minister. I think he will not object to calling the orchestra
â^À^ÜArtsakhâ^À^Ý.
