The
Days of Armenian Culture have begun in Kazakhstan. President Kassym-Jomart
Tokayev and the President of Armenia Vahagn Khachaturyan participated in the
opening ceremony, attending a gala concert at the Kalibek Kuanyshbayev State
Academic Kazakh Musical Drama Theater, where works by world-renowned Armenian
composers Komitas, Charles Aznavour, Georges Garvarentz, and Arno Babajanian
were performed by the State Jazz Orchestra of Armenia, along with artists Inga
Arshakyan and Gor Sujyan. The Heads of State also visited a photo exhibition
dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the great Armenian film director and
artist Sergei Parajanov. It is worth noting that Astana will also host the Days
of Armenian Cinema. The Hamazgayin State Theater will present the performance titled
«Lyu-Boff», based on the works of Daniil Kharms.
