Mihran Kalaydjian Playing Oldies Armenian Melody
Armenians have good taste in everything .,.,.,.Music is beautiful.
Armenia has a sad history and until today, it suffers and mourn for it. Until 1880s, Armenians were living under the Ottoman Empire with harmony. But after that, rise of nationalism began to change the political situation of Ottoman Empire.
Armenians were the only Christian minority between Ottoman Empire and Central Asia and they started to persecute Armenians. One of the biggest genocide of history was done by Turkish government between 1915 and 1923. In a systematic extermination, 1.5 million Armenians were murdered. Obviously this was a big moment and tragedy in Armenian history and today this sadness can be heard in folk music of Armenia.
Sad and mournful sound of duduk still talks about the Armenian Holocaust in the folk music of Armenia.
