An Iranian church from Isfahan Province has won the second award of
Poland’s International Festival of Orthodox Church Music ‘Hajnowka’.
In its first participation in the annual event, the Children’s Choir
‘Komitas’ received the second award of the ‘parish choirs’ category.
Iran’s Armenian Community formed the choir in 2005 and its members
were trained by Armen Amirchanian, a graduate of Armenia’s National
Conservatory.
The international event, which aims to present the artistic and
spiritual values of church music, has been organized by the Orthodox
Church Music Foundation in Hajnowka, Poland.
The 27th edition of the polish festival was held from May 20 to 25,
2008 in Bialystok, Poland.
