The 'patriotic' thread

[Siamanto]

I will burn and post some of the medieval songs.
It seems that there are at least 1166 documented songs or chants and some may date as early as early Christian times in Armenia.

I hope that the following six tracks of Armenian Medieval Music will introduce to you a new aspect of the Armenian Cultural Heritage. All tracks are from "The Music of Armenia - Vol. 2."



Mesrob Mashdots, 5th Century.
Bazoum yen ko gtoutyunk
Voghrmya ints Astvadz

Krikor Naregatsi, 10th Century
Havoun, havoun

Nerses Shnorhali, 12th Century
Der Voghormya

Composer and period unknown.
Our es mayr im
