Jrapi from Nor Shunch by Naregatsi Orchestra
The composer has dedicated this work to his father’s birthplace, Jrapi village, founded after the Genocide by Armenians from Kars and located
along the Akhuryan River, bordering Western Armenia. In fact, the remains of a bridge leading to the capital of Ani are preserved in Jrapi. Hence, the dance melody of “Jrapi” references the concept of “sea to sea Armenia.”
