ginosyan karinPanARMENIAN.Net – Art director of Karin folk dance ensemble Gagik Ginosyan said that the ensemble, which participated in Palma de Mallorca- hosted World Folkdance Festival, made a stop in Istanbul.

“We performed Kochari dance at Taksim square of Istanbul. There were basically tourists. It was a surprise for everyone. Many people asked what dance we perform. We performed Kochari, since it is our victorious dance – we danced it after the end of the World War II in Berlin and after liberation of Shushi. Our dance in Istanbul symbolized the revival of the Armenian nation, which survived the Genocide,” Ginosyan told journalists in Yerevan.
