Last night I went to a concert of Djivan Gasparian here in Holland with my family. Arriving there I see a pamphlet with "Turkish Style" music on it. Guess who's on the cover among Turkish dancers and singers and other musicians, yep you guessed it, Djivan Gasparian. Of course the whole Armenian community was shocked. Not only does Djivan's music even come near Turkish style music, also a lot of the music he plays was written at the time of/for, the AG. After the concert he came out to thank the Armenians who came to see him and he was very upset, naturally. He said at first: "I never knew until today that I played Turkish music", semi-joking, but you could see he took it pretty seriously. Then I realised, we are all the same to them (to Westerners). What do you think of this outrage, offending a 70-year old hero of Armenian music in this way?
