As the long-term employee of the NA library Fatma Khachatryan has informed, the pupils of the music schools also will have an opportunity to get acquainted with the songs and piano works of the Armenian composers Vladilen Balyan, Arno Babajanyan, Romanos Melikyan and other Armenian and foreign authors due to these books. An interesting fact: 128 composers created multi-genre musical works based on Hovhannes Tumanyan's 139 works.
