omg....i cant stand her!! You think she's a good rabiz singer and Hayko is not???? You should take Hayko out of the list above, you cant compare him with those other guys

Maybe he secretly likes it, but doesnt like it when he's trying to impress his peers and seem all educated.

School/college, same thing heheh. I've never seen anyone play like one of the teachers there. That guy is crazy. you can compaere him to babajanian.

A good example of good rabiz music is Harout. "Esor Arazn Es Gnatsel" - a song by Sheram, with "rabiz" arrangements. Or "yerkrasharj", again by harout. Another example is "makhmur akhchik" - tata. "jur em tsakhum, sare jur..." - harout. The list goes on... Example of people who cant think for themselves: I don't want to give out names, but he has a tv show on channel 26 in glendale. He is my music history teacher. He is educated, and seems to know a lot, but is biased by what other people say and by what books say. Since many people do not accept rabiz, he also doesnt accept it. What would people think if this "educated" man listened to "rabiz" music???? His reputation would be ruined. Being on tv, everyone would ridicule him and think less of him. Like i said before, people started off not accepting rabiz, and it's like an infinite loop. nobody dares to stop and reevaluate it. People at first did not accept the Arevatsag band because Hratch (singer) never went to music school. They ridiculed the band and refused to listen to them. This was more than 10 years ago. Later, the band won first place in Armenia's first ever traditional rock/jazz festival. HOw is that possible?

Dunno, I saw a tv interview like 2 yrs ago and he said hes not rabiz

you're completely right, but he never admit being rabiz.

I truly believe that there is some good rabiz music. I think those completely opposed to rabiz are those people that cant think for themselves and are influenced by other higher-up figures in society (teachers, politicians, etc). I believe labeling someone "rabiz" is similar to labeling someone a "witch" in the salem witchcraft trials. Ex) people that didnt graduate music school, or never went to music school were labeled rabiz singers. NO matter what they sang. You dont like someone?? Oh, lets call him a rabiz singer! The truth is, not all rabiz is bad no matter what anyone says. And again, the topic is about actual singers (tatoul, hovo, etc dont count cuz theyre not singers). Many people call Tata, and even HAROUT rabiz. I just want to know why some people are completely opposed to rabiz??????????

hahah, yea i know it's for sale. i'm getting a roland fantom x-7 (the same one Armenchik's arrangemetns are done with)

Levon Sargsyan sings that song, but not that well. Shat a klklatsnum.

Do you know if "Tsakhke Punj" is a work by him? It's a classical piece with no words i think.

Hey all, I have a roland g-800. I think Ara Gevorgian has used it in some concerts (not my actual keyboard, but his own g-800). It's a pretty good keyboard, I'll be posting some songs I've played soon. What instruments do you play? And do you have samples/pics?? Here's pics of mine: G-800 1 G-800 2 G-800 3 G-800 4 G-800 5

interesting....i didnt know that. but they say it's hard to learn piano after a certain age because your fingers are not as flexible

Hey everyone. I've always wanted to learn to play the piano, but I kept putting it off and now I'm 21 yrs old. I went to a piano teacher in january 2005 and practiced with him for 2 weeks. After that he kept putting it off (i think its cuz i was too old), so i stopped going for 2 months. In march I started going to an actual music college - Komitas (in burbank, hollywood). I've been playing for 3 months now with an excellent teacher and I love it. Anyone else start playing an instrument late? or did everyone start as a child? And how late do you guys think someone should start learning?

LOLLLL........... chuko looks cool. he has an interesting appearance. he has a few good songs too.."don chiki don don, chiki chiki don....kez asuum en takee ittt eassyyy...." something like that haha

yup, heard the song, havent seen the video yet. i think it sounds a lot like his other songs
