VARDAN GALSTYAN:
Singer-songwriter Vardan Galstyan lived in Kashatagh during his school years. He inherited the music from his parents and wrote the first song at age nine. As a poet and composer, accompanied by his guitar, the songs are the ones that gather everyone around him whenever he has something to say. His lyrics are deep and committed to his reality, and some of his songs can be heard here:
