Makam of this Armenian song?
Hi there!
I want to learn to play this beautiful song, Yaman yar, from Armenia. I cannot the makam(s) that are played, could you?
Here it is : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oiBA6WBvf3s&pp=ygUJWWFtYW4geWFy
More generally, what kind of makam are mostly found in Armenian music? Do you have any good sites, books, videos to recommend?
Thanks a lot (and sorry for my English)!

Pretty sure it's just Nihavend on G (Do, if you read turkish notation).
Instead of playing hicaz on the 5th degree, it drops down to the hicaz on D (Turkish Sol), resolving to the root. Not uncommon in Nihavent.
