Yerevan, March 10, 2010 (Serbia Today) - Few days ago, famous Serbian film director and No Smoking Orchestra have held a magnificent concert in Armenia, at the National Theatre in Yerevan. Kusturica came on invitation by Khachatur Almazian, famous Armenian violinist, known for his Almazian’s Obsession orchestra. Kusturica was given an official reception by Armenian president Serzh Sargsyan, and after that he was seen by Karekin II, the current head of the Holy Armenian Apostolic Church.
Upon his arrival in Yerevan, Kusturica was welcomed by Armenia’s Prime Minister, Tigran Sargsyan, after which they visited Yerevan’s Armenian Genocide Museum, where he planted a tree of peace. At the end of the visit to the museum-institute, Emir Kusturica, together with the members of the No Smoking Orchestra, laid a wreath at the location where seven Serbian pilots died in 1988, after delivering humanitarian aid to the Armenian people, hit by that year’s devastating earthquake.
