    Djivan Gasparyan to Perform in Ankara

    Zaman
    06.05.2004 Saturday

    World famous pipe player, Djivan Gasparyan, will perform at the Middle
    Eastern Technical University (ODTU) tonight.

    His work includes contributions to the scores of 'Gladiator', 'Call
    to Sin' and 'Dead Man Walking.'

    Djivan Gasparyan arranged a press meeting before the concert.

    "This is the first time I have visited Ankara," Gasparyan said
    during a press conference. "Before coming here however, I heard many
    things... Ankara is a city of universities and a city that shows
    interest in this kind of music. The concert which I will give in
    Ankara will be different from the concerts I have given in other
    parts of the world,"

    He commented that his reception in Turkey was unexpectedly warm. Born
    in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia in 1934, Gasparyan has worked
    with Armenian musicians for 50 years. Gasparyan is also a professor
    in the Yerevan State Conservatory.
