 Dikran Tchouhadjian[1] (Armenian: Տիգրան Չուխաճեան)[2] (1837 – March 11, 1898)[3] was an Armenian composer, conductor, public activist and the founder of the first opera institution in the Ottoman Empire[4].

Along with other Armenian intellectuals of that period he fought for the development of the national culture, organized Armenian musical societies, theatres, schools, papers and free concerts.

He is an author of pieces for piano, songs and romances, chamber and symphonic works, operas (Zemire, 1890; Leblebiji, 1875) etc. He died in Smyrna (now İzmir).

    • Interestingly enough I have been thinking to make a separate post about our desire to listen and dance to Arabic music with Azeri mugham…

      Don’t know where we could listen but indeed very informative that our great ppl always had connections with euopre and brought a lot into Armenia while their descendants for some rwason tend to connect with East…Another interesting thing Mesrop Mashtoc adopted greek phonetic order for our letters after comparing with already existing greek, syrian alphabets. If it was today our alphaber creator most definitely would have adopted Syrian one for us lol

    Իսկ ես ամենևին էլ համոզված չեմ, որ նրանք, ովքեր իրենց այսօր «հայ» են կոչում, իրականում եթնիկ հայեր են: Մի զգալի զանգված, եթե ոչ մեծամասնությունը, արաբ էլ չեն (ո՞ւր է գոնե արա՜բ լինեին) ինչոր կեղտոտ թրքա-բոշա խառնորդ են: Ոչ միայն արտաքին տեսքն է սարսափելի ու անասնական, այլև՝ որ ամենատհաճն է՝ հոգիները:

    Ես միշտ էլ համարել եմ, որ իրականում հայերի թիվը շատ ավելի քիչ է՝ մեկ միլիոն եթե հավաքվի՝ լավ է:
