On Sunday, 30 November 2014, the literary committee of the "Gladzor" Chapter of Hamazkayin Canada in Hamazkayin Theater Hall organized an evening dedicated to the 145th anniversary of Komitas Vardapet. Around 250 spectators, including Pashayan Father Stepanos and Der Komitas Senior Priest Panossian, attended the event.
In his speech, Bishop Meghrig Parikian, Prelate of Canada, revealed Komitas from various aspects, as a collector, arranger, interpreter and creator of songs.
The performances of the dance group of Hamazkayin’s choreographic college (choreographer Lori Najarian) and "Erebuni" dance group were the part of the program. The participants of Hamazkayin’s Painting Workshop exhibited their works and the sculpture Hagop Janbazian presented the statues and bust of Komitas.
Artist Ara Ter-Harutyunyan had prepared the stage picture, and Zohrab Tatikian willingly provided the printing. The conductor of the Ceremony was the Chairperson of the literary committee Meghedi Mnatsakanyan Kalousdian.
The participants appreciated the initiative and left the Hall greatly satisfied.
