YEREVAN, DECEMBER 14, NOYAN TAPAN. Composer and
instrumentalist Ara Gevorgian is going to present his song "Love
Each Other" to the Grammy Awards in 2008. As the musician said
at the December 14 press conference, the lyrics of the song, the
author of which is a Finn, in the future will be translated into
nearly 20 languages and the song will be performed by singers of
different nationalities.
Ara Gevorgian mentioned that this year he has also finished
the intrumental work "Love Each Other", on which he worked more
than 7 years. The work, which lasts 8 minutes and 40 seconds,
and in the recording of which world-famous musicians took part
and national musical instruments of different peoples were used,
is a call to the whole world humanity to be tolerant and to live
in peace.
Touching upon the charges of Polad Bulbuloglu, the
Ambassador of Azerbaijan, according to which the work "Artsakh"
is an Azeri one, A. Gevorgian said that he proved with documents
that it is his authored song. His copyright of that work was
stipulated in the Copyright Library of U.S. Congress in 1998.
"If the Azeris were right, they would apply to the court,"
A. Gevorgian said. He himself has much grounds to apply to the court
as in the World Championship of Figure-skating held in Minsk the
representative of Azerbaijan performed to the accompaniment of a
distorted performance of "Artsakh".
