YEREVAN, MAY 2, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. French Armenian
singer Marten Yorgantz visited Armenia after a break of more than 10
years. The famous singer had concerts in Yerevan on April 29-30. As
M. Yorgantz informed the Noyan Tapan correspondent, the Yerevan
concerts again proved that his songs are favourite in Armenia. In his
words, taking into consideration that circumstance, it is envisaged
to organize new concerts in the Fatherland in September.
M. Yorgantz mentioned that today Yerevan has at all another
appearance. The dwelling buildings, restarants and hotels built during
the recent years, in his words, make Yerevan more beautiful. The
singer is sure that if this tendency continues, Yerevan will be
compared with European capitals in few years.
In his words, the fact that Diasporan Armenians more frequently come
to the Fatherland during the recent years, and many of them even want
to take up permanent residence in Armenia, is gratifying.
Touching upon his singing art, M. Yorgantz mentioned that his disks
are released in the Armenian, French and Italian languages once in
two years, and he goes on tours to those countries where there are
Armenian colonies.
"Diasporan Armenian young people today more prefer listening to
Armenian songs. And I do my best to perform them not only love but
also patriotic songs as a song has an important role for keeping the
nation," the French Armenian singer emphasized.
It is painful for M. Yorgantz that singers in Armenia make an attempt
to involve European and American elements in Armenian songs, by what,
in his words, the Armenian music is distorted. "The Armenian music
must be performed only and only in Armenian," he mentioned.
