About Myself

Mangoutian Hichadagner are my DNA. They are what has nurtured my youth. They are my grandparents Misha and Knar Aznavourian. They are the angels who awakened me to the world. Though I am half French, with a father born in France but of Armenian descent. I owe every move in my life to those marvelous people who reminded me that the culture they came from was indeed talented and cultured. They gave me the love for their poets and they taught me Armenian folklore music . My grandfather’s Tar playing was unbeatable and his Deff playing was absolutely remarkable. My grandmother introduced me to Armenian dancing and singing. They were true artists, musicians, and comedians.
