for turkish speakers
i found this by chance just looking around the BBC Turkish website:
Geçmisten günümüze Ermeni bestekârlar
(The Armenian composers [of Istanbul] from past to present)
This is a great survey of Armenian contributions to Ottoman music and beyond, with commentary by the musicologist Bulent Aksoy on Hampartzum
Limonciyan and his "Hampartzum Nota", Tatyos Efendi, Artaki Candan, Nigogos Aga, Bimen Sen, and Udi Hrant among others.
The report was done in remembrance of the Turkish-Armenian journalist Hrant Dink, who believed strongly in promoting Turkish-Armenian understanding
and preserving the heritage of Ottoman Armenians.
