Armenian Church Music of the 5th- 13th centuries Ensebmle of Early and Medieval Music "taragan"  After his descent from Ararat, Noah first stepped on the land which over centuries became the first Christian country.
Christianity has been the Armenian state religion since 301 AD, 79 years before it became the official religion of the Roman Empire. The earliest known examples of Armenian church music are dated in the 5th century and credited to St. Mesrob, an inventor of the Armenian alphabet, and Movses Khorenatsi, a historian. The roots of Armenian Church music lay in Jewish biblical tunes, Zoroastrian ritual melodies and pre-Christian folk songs. Armenian church music is the most ancient among Christian musical cultures. The most popular genre of Armenian sacred church music was the sharagan, a canonical hymn. Eventually, these hymns were compiled in the sharagnots or "book of sharagan", and were canonized by assigning specific sharagans to particular days in the church calendar. read more and hear |
