It is well-known that Komitas Vardapet's creative and musical activities were covered in contemporary periodicals of the time; those publications have a valid documentary value in the current stage of Komitas studies. The "Ba­zmavep" could not keep from expressing its appreciation to Komitas.

The study is devoted to the publications of Armenian and foreign re­nowned musicologists in various issues of the "Bazmavep", which contain val­ua­ble facts about Komitas Vardapet. The following articles written by Varda­pet's contemporaries have been highlighted and studied: "Armenian Music in Venice" by Father Garabed Der-Sahagian, the editor of the academic journal "Baz­mavep", "Komitas Vardapet" by Father Ghevond Tayan, another editor of the "Bazmavep", a member of the Mekhitarist Congregation, musicologist, an ex­pert in spiritual music, as well as several articles by Amédée Gastoué and Father Yeghia Pechighian. The study encompasses not only articles, but also es­says and poems written about Vardapet.
