On North Avenue one can often be a witness to an unusual phenomena.
But today it was out of ordinary extraordinary. One guy with the
inscription Â"TurkeyÂ" on his shirt was sitting in the crowded place
of the Avenue, took a guitar and began to play softly Turkish music
at the same time singing in Turkish. In this place, of course, it is
common to raise money by singing, but what wanted the guy to show with
the appearance of his Turkish music, was more than strange. I stared in
surprise when I noticed that Robert Amirkhanian was also watching with
astonishment all this. Interestingly, how the composer perceived this.
-Mr, Amirkhanian, how do you assess this phenomenon? We stand out
for our tolerance, but how is this tolerance justified, when the Turk
in the shirt with the inscription Â"TurkeyÂ", plays Turkish music in
the heart of the capital of Armenia?
-I just came out here and did not have time to see his face, I was
attracted to his voice and I felt something alien to him. I saw it
as a bit of a protest.
-Well, you are professional.
-Well, you know, I wanted to understand the intonations of "Maria
Maria", if this is in Turkish ... But he should not dare to do such
thing like that here, if they knew, he would be stoned.
-Who will throw stones, they or we?
-Can you imagine if anyone will sit in the square of Turkey and sing?
-Yes, and he looks as if a protestor.
-One must have great courage to be called a Turk in Armenia and,
secondly, to get out publicly and sing. I do not think he is related
to Turks, except what is written on the shirt.
- Â"TurkeyÂ" - Turkey.
- Â"TurkeyÂ" also means turkey(bird), he can mean that.
-Well, let's hope that he sits like a turkey.
-Armenians have interesting nature. We are very patient, no matter who,
if he does something good, we can take it.
-Well, does this mean that we are patient?
-Good or bad, it is inherent in us.
-On the other hand, maybe we should not be surprised or complain,
because our singers sing so much in Turkish, they have decided to
come and present their original music?
-Well, that's another topic. But I do not think that Turk will be
able to play this kind of music.
-That's good, or at least ..?
-Zero, this is zero. This is a secondary phenomenon, as he repeats
someone, but for me it is valuable only that the person is doing on
his behalf. He may be a Persian, Persian Azer.
-Let me go and ask.
-Yes, ask "what he thinks of Turkey, what means his T-shirt with
this inscription."
As soon as I came up, the guy immediately changed his repertoire.
