YEREVAN, MAY 14, NOYAN TAPAN. "I think a TV channel without
advertisements and far from policy will be aimed at promotion of
high-class art," Artavazd Bayatian, the Director of the Ardzagank radio
station, said at the May 14 press conference meaning the cultural TV
channel to be opened in Armenia soon.
According to him, the cultural TV channel will give artists, critics
a possibility of expression, besides, classical music will be often
performed by that channel, which, unfortunately, is not done by
the other TV channels at all. "Classical art is very important for
aesthetical education.
Certainly, there will be also variety music on that channel, but not
the art created for sale," A. Bayatian said. In his words, television
should form opinion and taste, the cultural TV channel is expected
to be just this way.
Eduard Topchian, the Art Director and the Conductor of the Armenian
State Philharmonic Orchestra, is also sure that the new TV channel will
serve its purpose. "I hope it will be the only channel our "stars" and
"starlets" will not seize. Let all TV channels be theirs and that one
ours. Certainly, there should also be variety music, but not the music
we have on the market today," E. Topchian emphasized. In his words,
unfortunately, our people wishes to listen to such music. The bright
evidence of it is that if variety singers rent the Aram Khachatrian
concert hall, the concerts are held in crowded halls, while, if
world-famous musicians, opera singers perform, those concerts are
held in half-empty halls.
