Armenian opera singer, world-famous soprano Hasmik Papian sang at the 10th jubilee festival of the Armenian Music which is dedicated to the 90th anniversary of Armenian composer Avet Terteryan. The concert took place at Aram Khachaturyan concert hall on February 20.

As Papian had informed earlier, all proceeds of the charity concert will be donated to Armenak Urfanyan Fund, who heroically died in the Four-Day Artsakh War in April 2016, destroying a tank and more than10 enemy soldiers.

“I want to inform that 3.346.200 AMD were collected from the sale of the tickets thanks to your dedicated efforts. The proceeds will be transferred to Armenak Urfanyan Fund. I am extremely grateful to all those who contributed to this initiative,” Papian wrote on her Facebook page.

Papian next informed that she met Hamest Urfanyan, Director at Armenak Urfanyan Fund during the concert at the stage.

“I had incredible feelings. My performance on February 20 was perhaps the most exciting and memorable concert in my career,” the world-known opera singer wrote.

To note, the Fund named after Armenak Urfanyan was earlier launched by his mother in memory of all fallen heroes of the April war.
