It is a big loss and the only consolation is that I hope that our nation\u2019s womb will continue giving birth to such talents as Ohan Duryan, said actor Armen Elbakyan in his interview to journalists speaking about renowned conductor Ohan Duryan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Today at 12.00-14.00 hundreds of people bade their last farewell to the prominent maestro at the Yerevan Opera and Ballet Theatre.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a very painful loss for all people, for all art lovers. It\u2019s very sad that the last of the Mohicans are leaving us. Ohan Duryan\u2019s essence was in his ecstasy in music. Duryan was crazy in music,\u201d said film director Albert Mkrtchyan.<\/p><\/div>\n

Actor Azat Gasparyan also said in his interview to Epress.am that Ohan Duryan\u2019s death caused big pain to all Armenians.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cI am not speaking about his civic position now, we lost a renowned musician,\u201d said Gasparyan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Singer Ruben Matevosyan, speaking about Ohan Duryan\u2019s talent, said:<\/div>\n
\u201cDuryan was one of those who managed to represent Armenian conductor\u2019s art in Europe. Duryan has always been appreciated, of course, he had an irreconcilable character but it has nothing to do with his music, it\u2019s another issue, but no one can deny that he was a prominent figure. If Ohan Duryan is going to be buried in our Pantheon it means that he is appreciated,\u201d Matevosyan said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cArmenian people worship Ohan Duryan\u2019s spirit. I respected his spirit, not only his talent and his music. His civic position was his inimitable spirit which he held high,\u201d said academician Rafael Ghazaryan\u2019s widow Grizelda Ghazaryan in her interview to Epress.am.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
She noted, however, that Ohan Duryan was not appreciated in Armenia.<\/div>\n
\u201cWho would appreciate him, these ignorant people? The only thing they care for is the money,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very painful that he is not with us any more, although, as a rule, conductors are long-livers, they can work even seated for many years, history knows such cases. His loss is a big pain,\u201d noted conductor Robert Mlkeyan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Armenian Minister of Culture Hasmik Poghosyan said to the journalists that Ohan Duryan\u2019s appreciation is given by the people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cThe big crowd gathered here is the appreciation of Ohan Duryan\u2019s talent and there is no need for other interpretations. Only great people like Ohan Duryan deserve the farewell we bid him today,\u201d she said.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
