    YEREVAN. - Glendale Philharmonic Orchestra's Artistic Director and
    Chief Conductor Loris Tjeknavorian recently resigned and returned to
    his place of birth, Iran, Aravot daily writes.

    "They say, as of 2012 the maestro intends to link his creative
    life again with the Motherland [Armenia], and this time, for life,"
    Aravot writes.

    According to the daily, Tjeknavorian's resignation was provoked by the
    "factor" of Konstantin Orbelian Jr., the nephew of American-resident,
    USSR People's Artist, Konstantin Orbelian Sr.

    To note, in 1989, when Loris Tjeknavorian assumed the post of Artistic
    Director of State Philharmonic Orchestra of Armenia, he pushed out the
    State Band Orchestra, whose conductor was Orbelian Sr. According to
    evil rumors, Orbelian Jr. has some part in Tjeknavorian's aforesaid
    resignation, thus avenging for his uncle.
