People's Artist of the Republic of Armenia, opera singer Hasmik Papyan's Facebook post: "I was not familiar with Rev. Michael Ajapahyan until 2017. During those years, I was still living in Vienna.
I had a dream that I was singing in the Seven Wounds Church in Gyumri. I was aware that no solo concert had taken place in the Seven Wounds Church before that. I called the priest, introduced myself, and told him about my dream. I asked if it was possible..., not letting me finish my question, he replied, "anything is possible for you"... he organized the concert, a piano and 400 chairs were brought to the church. He only asked for one thing: that the compositions not be interrupted by applause, this is a church... I sang exclusively Komitas in the Leplet Yot Verk. My vow was fulfilled.
I am experiencing unspeakable, unimaginable pain...
"Bring back my dream days..."
