/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The reason for low quality of today's popular music
is inactivity of RA Composers' Union, which has to pass its judgment
on every new song, composer Aram Satyan told a news conference attended
by RA Symphonic Orchestra conductor Eduard Topchyan.
Eduard Topchyan regretfully noted that both control and discussions
on professional quality of songs performed are useless, as quality
songs are initially lacking in repertoires of today's singers.
According to Aram Satyan, judging by songs broadcast today over TV
and Radio, "We don't need serious art, everything is measured today
by pop-music."
Eduard Topchyan is confident that there's no sense in looking for
someone to blame, as with all the wide choice of music Armenian
population has, it opts for low quality music.
"Local singers perform low quality songs for one simple reason -
it's what most of people want to hear," Eduard Topchyan noted.
