On May 31, a major concert celebrating the 15th anniversary of the
Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's German affiliate was held at the Haus
Burgpark hall in Hurth, near Cologne, Germany. Featuring the Navasart
Ensemble, a critically acclaimed French-Armenian folk-dance troupe
based in Paris, the charity event was attended by an audience of 800.
Proceeds from the concert - which was sponsored by the fund's German
and Swiss affiliates as well as Association of Armenian Business-Man
(Germany), and Armenian Medical Association of Germany - will benefit
the reconstruction of the Noyemberyan Regional Hospital, in Armenia's
Tavush Region.
The Navasart Ensemble's performances were preceded by the screening of
a documentary film on the history and accomplishments of the fund's
German affiliate. In his opening remarks, Gilbert Momdjian, chair of
the affiliate, stated that the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund continues
to function as a bastion of worldwide Armenian unity and collaboration.
The concert's honorary guests included Avedis Kizirian and Noebar
Sepojan Sipaan, chairs of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's Switzerland
and Netherlands affiliates, respectively; German-Jewish journalist
and film director Ralph Giordano, who has championed international
efforts to recognize the Genocide of the Armenians; as well as German
elected officials and representatives of various organizations.
Renowned across Europe for its dazzling productions and high level
of artistry, the Navasart Ensemble is led by conductor and artistic
director Eddy Djololian. Throughout their performances in Hurth,
the troupe's 60 musicians and dancers received waves of applause and
several standing ovations.
