ArmInfo. Principal Conduction and Artistic Director of Armenian
Philharmonic Orchestra Edward Topchyan has lost his faith in young
talents.
During a press-conference today he said that today things in Armenia
are even worse than they were a year before. "If last year we had
one young musician, today, we have nobody at all as that musician
has already left the country. The key problem is the lack of normal
music schools. We could solve this problem if we stopped the practice
of protectionism at our music schools. As regards young talents,
we have no talents even at the Spivakov Foundation. Today, we are
experiencing even harder times: those who play badly are sure they
play well. And if this situation continues, we will have no good
musicians in some 5-6 years," Topchyan said.
