YEREVAN, APRIL 26, NOYAN TAPAN. “Today the youth prefers to listen to
light music, therefore not only in Armenia, but also in Russia, in
Europe and in U.S. tasteless music is propagandized at every turn,”
opera singer Hasmik Hatsagortsian mentioned at the press conference
held on April 26 at the Hayeli (Mirror) club. Singer Nune Yesayan
considers that everyone decides himself what music to listen to and
the classical music is listened by them who understand it. According to
her, formerly all performances of songs were heard beforehand, whereas
nothing of the kind takes place today. Thus, the TV air is full of
tasteless performances. “Everybody sings today but most of them are
far from professionalism. One of the reasons is that by transmitting
them the television receives huge sums,” N.Yesayan said. According
to H.Hatsagortsian, she does not pay to the television, therefore her
performances are not broadcast by TV. “My solo concert was held some
months ago in Yerevan, which was viodeoed by the Public Television
but this concert has not been broadcast by now,” she mentioned.
