    On June 4 Charles Aznavour, the renowned performer, will meet with
    the audience of Stepanakert on the Square of Rebirth. The famous
    singer and actor will also visit the culture and sports center in
    the capital of Karabakh.

    Aznavour arrived in Armenia on June 2 with his wife, daughter and
    grandson.

    Last time the singer was in Armenia in 2006 which was the year of
    France in Armenia. Charles Aznavour told reporters that every time
    he visits his historical homeland he has a feeling of great joy. The
    singer said he was told that his museum will be opened in Yerevan
    and he hopes to see it.

    Charles Aznavour lives in France but never forgets about his Armenian
    origin. In 1988 after the earthquake in Armenia which took tens of
    thousands of life, he set up the charity association Aznavour for
    Armenia which provided aid to the victims of the disaster.

    Aznavour composed the song "For You Armenia" and performed it with
    90 other French singers and actors, and sold 2 million copies of
    the record.

    On this money a number of houses and schools were built in the area
    of the disaster. The singer continues to provide assistance to Armenia.

    Charles Aznavour has composed 1000 songs, acted in 60 films and sold
    over 100 million recordings. According to a survey by the Time and CNN
    (1998), Anavour is the best performer of the 20th century.
