    The Armenian State Chamber Orchestra has organized concerts for
    Karabakh to take place on September 11-15, called "Artsakh's First
    Festival." The concerts commemorate the 15th anniversary of the
    liberation of Shushi. This was announced today by the orchestra's
    artistic director and conductor, Aram Gharabekyan.

    Eight concerts will take place, in Stepanakert, Shushi, Mardakert,
    Gandzasar, the village of Vank, with an open-air, gala concert to
    take place at the "Rebirth Square" in Stepanakert. The concert will
    be broadcast live on National Television.

    More than 200 musicians will take part in the festival, including the
    Armenian State Chamber Orchestra, the Artsakh State Chamber Orchestra,
    the Artsakh State Choir, and the Artsakh military brass band.

    "The purpose of the festival is to make the classical music art
    accessible to the people of Karabakh and to give the music meaning,"
    Gharabekyan noted, adding that "the people will be able to hear live
    music, which isn't always possible these days."

    Entry to all the concerts is free. The festival is sponsored by the
    Armenian Ministry of Culture, at a sum of 27 million dram.
