Germany's delegate at Eurovision 2017 Levina visits Komitas Museum-Institute

Within the framework of Eurovision promo tours, Germany’s delegate at Eurovision 2017 Levina visited Armenia. The singer has today paid a visit to Komitas Museum-Institute and performed “Kaqavik” by Komitas. Levina showed interest towards Komitas’ personal belongings, the music he composed, as well as the fact that he once studied Philosophy at leading University after Wilhelm Friedrich in Berlin (currently known as Humboldt University).

Levina familiarized with the recently opened temporary exhibition entitled “Sound and Silence”, getting to know many folk musical instruments displayed at the museum. She tried to play the Qanun, a string instrument, and was impressed to listen to a number of folk songs.

Upon completion of the tour around the Museum, Levina left a note in the journal, which reads “I am so grateful for this interesting and splendid tour. From now on I will listen to his music more often”.

Levina’s agenda also includes a visit to Tumo Center for Creative Technologies, meeting with Eurovision fans and representatives of mass media.
