How Do You Write "Armenian Music Scores" or "Sheets" in Armenian?
Parev Friends,
Would someone be so kind as to post the phrase, "Armenian Music Scores," "...Sheets" and/or "...Notes" in Armenian?
If I am able to find anything good on the web, of course I'll share it!
շնորհակալություն in advance!
I hope to find more material like the attached.
Peace out,
"Udi" John

It should be something like նոտագրված հայկական
երգեր (notated armenian songs) but i couldn't find anything using this or similar searches. there is not very much
armenian sheet music on the internet and you're almost more likely to find it under an english search term than armenian. there are a lot of LYRICS
written in armenian script but I found no sheet music. maybe i'm using the wrong word. the dictionary told me
"նօթաշար" for score but that got me nothing.
there is some armenian sheet music like what you found and here is another page: arak29/songbook/songbook.php
but there is really almost nothing in regard to the type of armenian music played on the oud. after all, most of the those musicians play by ear
anyway.
heres another: armenianoud.com/armenian_music.html
you live in california, there is probably a lot of armenian books of sheet music in some of the university libraries there. you will most likely find
classical pieces, and works by eastern armenian "ashoughs" (troubadours) such as sayat-nova, jivani, sheram, ashod, which are often played on the oud
as well, although they weren't originally. in addition to if you are lucky collections of gomidas, which are sometimes played on the oud.
another source is duduk.com go to forums and go to sheet music although this is notated for the duduk.
you might be able to find some stuff if you search really hard using "երգեր"
"երգարան" "հայկական երգեր"
"ժողովրդական երգեր" (songs, songbook, armenian songs,
folk songs" (if it has "folk songs" written in armenian script, its 95% probability going to be armenian folk songs.)
I just found a very good source!!!!
if you go to serials.flib.sci.am it will take you to something called "online portal of series publications".
if you scroll down to the second to last row of books entitled "ԿՈՄԻՏԱՍ" you will find the entire soviet run
of Gomidas publications, about 20 books (some seem to be single songs published as a pamphlet), they are all folk songs, mostly from Eastern Armenia,
some harmonized and some not. There is also an entire book of the Gomidas setting of the Armenian Divine Liturgy.
Below Gomidas is Spendiarian. This is "western-classical" armenian music.
Farther up there is a group of books entitled ՀԱՅ
ԱԶԳԱԳՐՈՒԹՅՈՒՆ etc. In the first volume of that section, in the last
article in the volume, are some notated folk songs from Van. There may be some other music in other volumes of the series but it is going to be hard
to find and rifle through it.
Hope this helped.
