about

Kamancha is a piece by the bard Harutiun Sayatian, better known by the name Sayat Nova (1712-1795). Dubbed "the king of songs", he was the living incarnation of the friendship between the Peoples of the Caucasus. He sang in Armenian, but also in Georgian, Turkish and Persian. This poem dedicated to the bowed string instrument of Persian origin can be heard across the region. It is sung in Armenian in the spirit of Sayat Nova by Emre Gültekin from Turkey and Sepideh Raissadat from Iran.
