    YEREVAN, AUGUST 9, ARMENPRESS: The commission set up to select the
    works for the new Armenian anthem has selected the best five works
    from the 85.

    Armenian Culture and Youth Affairs Minister Hasmik Poghosian said that
    by the majority of the voices the work of Tigran Mansurian based on
    the poem of Yeghishe Charents took the first place, then comes Yervand
    Yerznkian's work based on the poem of Ararat II, Edgar Hovhannissian's
    work based on the poem of Vahagn Davtian, Aram Khachaturian's work
    based on the poem of Arsen Soghomonian and finally comes the work of
    Robert Amirkhanian based on the poem of Ludwig Durian.

    The first round of the competition was summed up by three
    hearings. Poghosian said that the above mentioned works will be
    presented to the public, until that they will develop the system by
    which people will express their opinion about the works. They are also
    going to work out mechanisms on how they will take into consideration
    the opinions of the people.

    The minister assessed the work of the commission as unbiased and
    effective and noted that all the discussions were conducted in a
    working atmosphere.

    The public hearings of the second round will be organized by the end
    of the month.
