Komitas’s Sacred Harmony Before the Silence, the Last Liturgy
Hratch Tchilingirian | 24 April 2025
During the chaos of World War I in Constantinople, Komitas Vardapet began composing a version of the Armenian Divine Liturgy (Badarak) for a male choir. Due to military exemptions for some educators and church servants, including a few from the Armenian Church in Galata (Istanbul neighborhood), Komitas gathered a group of about 25–30 young men and worked intensely—sometimes day and night—to train them and compose the choral arrangements, carefully crafting each voice part as its own unique melody....

Reverse Engineering: A State-Created Albanian Apostolic Church
-
Hratch Tchilingirian (2023) “Reverse Engineering: A State-Created ‘Albanian Apostolic Church’” in Caucasian Albania. An International Handbook. Edited by Jost Gippert and Jasmine Dum-Tragut. Berlin, Boston: De Gruyter, 2023: 581-609, https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110794687-019.
Abstract: This Chapter provides a brief historical overview of Christianity in Nagorno-Karabakh in the wider context of the modern Azerbaijani-Armenian conflict and disputed territories. It then focuses on how the Azerbaijani state is constructing an “Albanian Apostolic Church” – variously called “Udi Church” or “Udi Orthodox Church” – as part of a new narrative that connects modern-day Azerbaijanis to ancient peoples, cultures and early Christianity in the Caucasus. The common features of this state-“engineered” narrative are denial of facts, erasure of evidence and reinvention of history, which goes back to Soviet times.
