  • Charles Aznavour, Empereur De La Chanson Française
    Charles Aznavour, empereur de la chanson française Par GNCD JJR 65 Un chanteur à succès est heureux de nos jours avec un catalogue de 30 ou 50 titres. Charles Aznavour, le plus grand chanteur français vivant, dispose d’un catalogue de plus de 1000 titres, dont la moitié écrite par lui-même. Ce seul chiffre illustre de manière écrasante la présence phénoménale de ce chanteur depuis plus d’un demi-siècle, que ce soit en France ou dans le monde. Et ces titres sont repris internationalement par les plus grands : Ray Charles, Fred Astaire, Bing Crosby, Liza Minnelli, Bobby Mac Ferrin, Manu Dibango, et j’en passe. Et ce ne sont que les seuls titres musicaux, car les autres titres sont innombrables : Commandeur de la Légion d’Honneur, Ambassadeur permanent de l’Unesco en Arménie, Prix de la Société Américaine des Auteurs-Compositeurs, Ambassadeur d’Arménie en Suisse, Médaille Vermeille de la Ville de Paris, Héros National de l’Arménie, Lion d’Or du Festival de Venise, la liste est longue, arrêtons-nous là. Et n’oublions pas une carrière d’acteur, en parallèle. Et si Charles Trénet, un autre grand de la chanson française fut initialement l’idole de Charles Aznavour, cela s’explique très naturellement : tous deux sont des partisans farouches de la chanson française classique et de qualité, dont les textes comme les airs sont vraiment ciselés comme des bijoux : Aznavour a toujours revendiqué hautement son amour du beau français. Au début du succès, dans les années 1950 Qui de nos jours pourrait penser en se promenant rue la Huchette, rue des bistrots pour touristes, à 300 mètres de Notre-Dame de Paris, que c’est là qu’ a un temps grandi le petit Charles Aznavourian, fils d’un réfugié arménien ? Son père , Micha Aznavourian, un chanteur baryton (les gènes, ce n’est pas rien !) réfugié en France suite aux conséquences de la 1 ère guerre mondiale, y a en effet ouvert un restaurant pour refaire sa vie.

Trust of this order has been earned through as much hard work as the scale and quality of completed projects. Despite the severe economic downturn that impacted Armenia and the rest of the world in 2010, the fund not only stayed the course, but went on to raise the bar in terms of fundraising objectives. Such a singular accomplishment belongs equally to the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund and the Armenian nation as a whole. Development projects implemented in 2010 as well as ongoing initiatives are of vital and strategic significance to our people.
