Stepanakert
World-renowned Spanish soprano Montserrat Caballe will perform at
Renaissance Square in Stepanakert today. The concert is dedicated to
the 20th anniversary of conclusion of ceasefire.
Montserrat Caballe, who was named Honorary Ambassador of UN in 1974
and Ambassador of Peace in 1991 and was designated UNESCO Goodwill
Ambassador in 1994, first visited Artsakh in June 2013. As a result
she was "blacklisted" by Azerbaijan.
After the visit Caballe released the album "Armenia and Artsakh: An
Isle of Christianity," which was presented in Paris on December 12,
2013. The singer then promised to visit Artsakh again, and this time
she has arrived in Stepanakert with her family.
Caballe said ahead of today's concert she would like to sing for the
sake of peace and prosperity in Artsakh.
There was a surprise awaiting Montserrat Caballe in Nagorno Karabakh.
An auditorium in the reconstructed musical college of Stepanakert
has been named after her. The world-known soprano participated in
the opening of the auditorium, listened to the talented musicians of
Artsakh and sang herself.
