+uçan erişte but its Armenian national folk song, there are many song which melodies were used by Turkishs and Kurds. If you know Komitas was developed Turkish and Kurdish folks songs too, and gave it to their nationalities.
+Radik Karapetian Yes, that is what I tried to mean. Common folkloric and cultural elements have been shared between various ethnicities. Many cultural features have been transferred and adopted by either one. Yet, it is not fair that they see each other as potential enemies. Damn politics.
uçan erişte , they aren't similar, and they were not shared, what had done Komitas, it is that he cleared and separated every natioanl music and gived it to his owners. for example Armenian national folklor is coming from old pagan culture and Komitas developed songs based on that ethnoculture. for Turkish the base is middle asian cultures , fir Kurdish it is Iranian and so ... Komitas was know every oriental music culture from Ottoman empire to Japan, and he was only representat in europe in his years for oriental music. sorry for bad english
+Radik Karapetian I didn't said that they are similar. Yes, three cultures are very distinct. But people had lived in the same cultural area. They are neighbours. They had lived the similar cultural features. They loved. They enjoyed. They separated. They mourned. What all they felt are found in such folk songs. It does not matter who created it first. They even did not thought who created a beautiful song first. People were friends. But politicians and racist were not. Have a nice day.
uçan erişte, there is noting about who created the first, there is about who created . ok, people where friends, and teach that to the people who killed the crators of this song and music. nice day.
