Music of Armenia

Hayko Cepkin, a Turkish-Armenian musician, has made an unconventional start to his latest concert when he arrived at the scene from the sky with a parachute.

Award-winning Armenian jazz pianist Tigran Hamasyan performed a concert on June 23 outside the Akdamar Church on the historical Akdamar Island in the eastern province of Van.

The concert on Akdamar Island was "vigorous," said Tamar Nalc?, the project coordinator at Anadolu Kültür (Anatolian Culture), a non-profit cultural institution that organized Hamasyan's concerts in Turkey.
