Friday, May 7, 2021
Aram Ilyich Khachaturian was a Soviet Armenian conductor and composer. Born and raised in Tbilisi, in an Armenian family, he moved to Moscow in 1921 after the Sovietization of the Caucasus region. His first major work, the Piano Concerto of 1936, gained him popularity both inside and outside of the Soviet Union. Some of these greatest compositions include the Anthem of the Armenian SSR, the Masquerade Suite, and three symphonies to name just a few.
Khachaturian is most famous for the ballet music of Spartacus and Gayane. His most notable work from Gayane – the Sabre Dance – has been widely used in modern culture by many musicians worldwide.
