The Gomidas Music School belongs to Hamazkayin's Avedis Aharonian chapter in Qamishli, in northeastern Syria. It offers music lessons and a summer school, and is named after Komitas, the priest and musicologist who collected and transcribed Armenian folk music. A music school in a community of this size is a significant undertaking, and it gives local children a grounding in Armenian musical tradition. The school works alongside the chapter's Vana dance group. It is listed with contact routes on the Hamazkayin Syria regional page.
