Similarities between Armenian and Assyrian songs (Հայ & ܐܬܘܪܝܐ)
A mash up of songs that we share with our fraternal Armenian friends , some we have passed to them and others they have passed to us. Not nearly complete enough but these are some of the few I have come across. Note whilst “Asmar“ is a popular song in the region sung by many groups, these particular versions “Asmara“ and “Asmar Aghchig“ seem to take inspiration from the Arab version sung by Samira Tawfik.
