    LIFE OF CHRIST AND THE GREAT ARMENIAN GENOCIDE

    On April 24 at 00:00 a.m. in the Chamber Music Hall after Komitas maestro
    Loris Chgnavoryan will give a midnight concert titled `Life of Christ' in
    memory of the Great Armenian Genocide victims. The male spiritual choir, and
    soloists Souren Lazarian (tenor) and Vahagn Hovents (bariton) will sing in
    the concert.

    After the end of the concert they will march to Tsitsrnakaberd where they
    will meet the April 24 dawn with the Nerses Shnorhali spiritual psalms named
    `Dawn'. Today in the press conference in the Journalists House Loris
    Chgnavoryan informed about it.

    The composition `Life of Christ' has been processed by the maestro. He has
    processed the spiritual psalms connected with Christ for the male choir and
    has summed them up in the oratory `Life of Christ', which was performed for
    the first time in 1975 in London.

    Why Life of Christ? The maestro commented that the Armenian Genocide is like
    the life of Christ: as he was crucified and raised from the dead three days
    later, the Armenian nation was crucified in 1915 and raised from the dead 3
    years later.

    By the way, a DVD will soon be released about the Genocide in which a film
    will be represented about the Great Armenian Genocide.
