    Armenia, Lithuania and Bulgaria presented their culture during the
    event organized at UNESCO Headquarters to celebrate International
    Francophonie Day and the tenth anniversary of the UNESCO Convention
    for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage. Armenia was
    represented by duduk player Levon Minasyan.

    "Musicians and dancers performed masterpieces of the Armenian Duduk,
    the Bulgarian Bistritsa Babi and the Lithuanian SutartinÄ-s, all of
    which are inscribed on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible
    Cultural Heritage, reflecting the wealth of these cultures, their
    common influences and their interactions, handed down from generation
    to generation, forging close ties between peoples throughout history,"
    UNESCO said in a statement.

    Director-General of UNESCO Irina Bokova and Armenian Ambassador to
    France Vigen Chitechyan, heads of the international organizations
    and diplomatic representations attended the concert held at UNESCO
    Headquarters in Paris.
