From Sasuntsi song and dance to Argentinean tango
Support A1+!The children of Irind village in Talin region dance Argentinean tango, and song and dance weren't the only things that they surprised today's European guests with.
Within the framework of the program called "Support for Decentralization of Management and Democratization", the "Threshold of Life" civil initiative organized 6-month courses on singing, dancing, photography, English language and computers, and the graduating ceremony took place today. The program was funded by the European Union.
Head of the Center "Supporting the Development of Local Self-Government" Arevik Harutyunyan noted that the children had been entirely left out of competition and that the purpose of the program was to add positive values from the outside world to the local rich heritage.
Impressed by the children's performance, Financial Director of the European Union delegation in Armenia Jean-Kristof Gayrand announced that the program couldn't end and pledged that the children would have the opportunity to present Armenian culture in Europe.
At the end, the elderly of the village jointed the children as they danced the Kochari of Sasuntsis.
