YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 25, NOYAN TAPAN. A compact disk of the Book of Lamentations poem in English and Armenian created by the project of Anahit Davtian, a doctor by speciality, thanks to joint work of composer Nerses Margarian and sound director Armen Toroyan has been already released. This idea born as early as in 1998, on the occasion of the 1700th anniversary of adoption of Christianity in Armenia was failed to be fulfilled. Later, in 2003, on the occasion of the 1000th anniversary of the Book of Lamentations poem compact disk's release again failed. Finally, the compact disk was released with the assistance of the Sharm Holding company. As Anna Avanesian, Sharm Holding company's Public Relations executive, said during the event dedicated to disk's presentation, the grandfather of project's author Anahit Davtian, physicist and chemist Hovhannes Davtian has dedicated all his life to Narekatsi studies. He scientifically grounded Narekatsi's word in his two large scientific works, Narekatsi's World Outlook and Fundamental Field Review. His love for Narekatsi and his poetry was also inherited by his granddaughter. Anahit is also the editor of disk's text. According to Anahit Davtian, Narekatsi is not purely a poet, his words to the God are a guideline for the mankind. In her words, the choice of the person reading the text was also too important: after long searches they decided to choose RA People's Artist Sos Sargsian. The work has been translated from Old Armenian into New Armenian by Mkrtich Kheranian.
