Yesterday was the unveiling of Komitas Vartabed’s monument in Montreal. The father of Armenian Folk Music, persecuted in 1915, survived the genocide physically, but was driven into emotional trauma by it.
Thanks to him, thousands of our Folk songs #Survived the #ArmenianGenocide.
Sculptor: Dr. Megerditch Tarakdjian
