Azat Posted February 27, 2001 Report Share Posted February 27, 2001 Ali, Many Armenians claim that he is Armenian, however he was asked if he was and he did say that he was not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koko Posted March 11, 2001 Report Share Posted March 11, 2001 Dont underestimate the armenians! That is right, Karajan has got an armenian father!I got the information from a family who accidently got seated next his daughter at one of his conserts. And they came to discusse the possibilities of him beeing armenian, none tought that he was.-His dauther responded and gave them a bitter chock. He has choosen not to make it a public affair.
